Well, I've been up to the mountain,
I've walked down by the sea
I never questioned no one
And no one questioned me
My love was given freely
And oftimes was returned
I never came to borrow
I only came to learn
Sometimes it did get lonely
But it taught me how to cry
And laughter came too easy
For life to pass me by
I never had a dollar
That I didn't earn with pride
'Cause I had a million daydreams
To keep me satisfied
So, will you gather daydreams?
Or will you gather wealth?
How can you find your fortune?
When you cannot find yourself?
Gordon Lightfoot, from “Sit Down Young Stranger”
