Wise Man

Wise Man

I sat before the wise man in the autumn of my youth

And I told him all the things I had to know

He said you heard the future if you need to find the truth

And in his eyes I saw that it was so

So I came around and asked him the meaning of live

And as he smiled I saw a twinkle in his eyes

He said with all his years there's still so much he has to learn

And once again, I saw that it was so

Keep on living low and wanting for your turn

Is the only way to ease your concern

If you want to find your dream for sure

You don't wake up too soon

And you'll find that he's a shooting for the moon

Wise man, wise man

Which way should I run

There's so many roads, so many ways to turn

I'm like a blind man, lost in the sun

I wanna be like you and be a wise man too

But I'm looking for an easy way to learn
