Why Not Drift

Why not drift, drift away my heart? Drifts like a matter in a running stream From the bank where I once sat And share a love and a dream. Drift to the falls where it hurts no more! Why not drift away my heart quickly? Like an invincible spell of the breeze Before the crannies of a prisoned life flee Through the mountain range and trees Drift around the sphere like a troubadour! Why not drift, oh drift, drift high My heart, drift up beyond the hemisphere Drift gently like a snow cloud in the sky Above the plane of pain, sadness fear.... Drift with ease and encumbered no more!
