The life long work they choose;
A few will make the steps it takes
To love the work they do.

They seek their call; give up their all;
As we might choose a lover;
Who so inspires such fierce desires;
That you could have no other.

A mistress who owns all of you
Who leaves you drained and spent;
Invades your sleep, that you should keep;
Her appetites content.

How swift they say, when work is play;
A mistress unsurpassed;
With none to choose the path you use;
On dreams youve yet to cash.

While most select with some regret;
The life long work they choose;
A few will make the steps it takes
To love the work they do.

They seek their call; give up their all;
As we might choose a lover;
Who so inspires such fierce desires;
That you could have no other.

A mistress who owns all of you
Who leaves you drained and spent;
Invades your sleep, that you should keep;
Her appetites content.

How swift they say, when work is play;
A mistress unsurpassed;
With none to choose the path you use;
On dreams youve yet to cash.
