(Hensley)
|
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
|
