Idyllic Studies

All the sweet people with their tales of trouble
All the sweet people with their sad songs of struggle

All the sweet people with their laughs and smiles
Happy despite the tolls of their trials

All the sweet people that have gathered around me
Telling sweet stories of the world that they see

They walk around with an inner child
Let it romp, let it play, once in a while

What would happen if I gave an embrace
Would they meet me with doubt, or perhaps not a trace

All the sweet people in this world we live in
See them all for their goodness and sin
See them all for what lies within
All the sweet people in this world we live in.
