Mayfly

The fly of May
It lives one day

When that day is done
MayFly does not complain
It flies into the setting sun
It goes back to the place from which it came

The fly of May

Ask how, ask why
One day MayFly
That's all you get
You give no thought to it

Me, my life is long
With reasons few like you
When I go and when I'm gone
I will understand these things I never knew

The fly of May

One day, one day
One day, it's long enough
If you really think about it

The fly of May
It lives one day

The fly
One day
Of May
One day

The fly
One day
Of May
One day

It lives
One day
One day
One day

The fly of May
