Linger with Pleasure

I’ll rent a house somewhere

I’ll listen to Biosphere

And all I see there

A straight line in the atmosphere

Every hour will be longer

And I’ll linger with pleasure

The only visitor I will invite

Is the whispering wind or the sunlight

I’ll leave all disturbants at home

The evening papers and the telephone

But I’ll bring my memories

Despite everything

I hope life will miss me

Maybe this is wishful thinking

And maybe I’ll just keep on sinking

But sometimes it’s enough to know

That there is a place where everything is on hold

Where the hours will be longer

And I’ll linger with pleasure
