If I am just a mockingbird
What song could I sing that You have not heard
And if I am just a blowing wind
Where could I go that You have not been

There's nothing new under the sun
And no man good, not even one

If I am made of dust and earth
I've been a dead man since my birth
I've felts the pangs for Spring to come
To rise up with the warming sun

But even if it came today
It just as soon would pass away

All the good there is in me
Please hide it in your memory
Beautiful wild and true
That's how I'll remember you

Nothing found in time can stay
Everything just goes away

What hope is there for me to cling
So closely creeping is death's sting
As surely as the morning dew
Please tell me I can trust in you

Nothing found in time can stay
Everything just goes away
War and death, tears and pain
All these things will go away
