Ever since I could remember, I have known
That children, by candle light
Have seen a shadow on the wall
And have chased it all night through
Busily, they have tried
With all their might, to catch it
And when they most
Expect to catch it
It shoots most quickly out of sight
This shadow never shall be caught
In any trap they lay
This shadow in the likeness
Of this world and yesterday
