If only there were no dimes,
I would kick back and watch the sun move across the sky.
If only I had the time.
I could spend the morning on a rhyme,
Investigate the answers to every “why?,”
If only there were no dimes.
If I so desired, I could learn the art of mime.
But I am far too busy to even try.
If only I had the time.
I could get off of this ladder I’m forced to climb,
Not feel guilty to take a breath and just sigh,
If only there were no dimes.
If the feeling struck me, I would spend an evening listening to the wind chimes chime,
Painting a portrait of the moon up high,
If only I had the time.
Living life wouldn’t be a crime,
We would channel our energy into our passions before we die,
If only there were no dimes.
If only I had the time.
