I'm twenty two I'm twenty two	A
They gaily give me joy	B
As if I should be glad to hear	C
That I was less a boy	B
They do not know how carelessly	D
Their words have given pain	E
To one whose heart would leap to be	D
A happy boy again	F
	-
I had a light and careless heart	G
When this brief year began	H
And then I pray'd that I might be	D
A grave and perfect man	H
The world was like a blessed dream	I
Of joyous coming years	J
I did not know its manliness	J
Was but to wake in tears	J
	-
A change has on my spirit come	K
I am forever sad	L
The light has all departed now	M
My early feelings had	L
I used to love the morning grey	N
The twilight's quiet deep	O
But now like shadows on the sea	J
Upon my thoughts they creep	O
	-
And love was like a holy star	P
When this brief year was young	Q
And my whole worship of the sky	R
On one sweet ray was flung	Q
But worldly things have come between	S
And shut it from my sight	T
And though the star shines purely yet	U
I mourn its hidden light	T
	-
And fame I bent to it the knee	J
And bow'd to it my brow	M
And it is like a coal upon	V
My living spirit now	M
But when I pray'd for burning fire	W
To touch the soul I bow'd	X
I did not know the lightning flash	Y
Would come in such a cloud	X
	-
Ye give me joy Is it because	J
Another year has fled	Z
That I am farther from my youth	A2
And nearer to the dead	Z
Is it because my cares have come	K
My happy boyhood o'er	W
Because the visions I have lov'd	B2
Will visit me no more	C2
	-
Oh tell me not that ye are glad	L
I cannot smile it back	D2
I've found no flower and seen no light	T
On manhood's weary track	D2
My love is deep ambition deep	O
And heart and mind will on	V
But love is fainting by the way	N
And fame consumes ere won	E2
