I Don’t Know

Long days
But worthy days
They tell me so
But in the quiet darkness
I don't know

By your eyes
What see you there
Is it my soul
Or else the empty heavens
I don't know

None do I bemoan
None do I scold
Nor hand I hold
Should I be feeling sorry
I don't know

Sweet is your song,
Your playful song
The answer's, 'No'
You ask me why that is, and
I don't know

Long, they call
And longer so
Than shadows grow
But how long they will,
My brother,
I don't know
