In the autumn of my youth
And I told him all
The things I had to know
He said you have the future
If you need to find the truth
And in his eyes
I saw that it was so
So I came right out
And asked him
The meaning of life
And as he smiled
I saw a twinkle in his eye
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, loving
Waiting your turn
It's the only way to
Ease your concern
If you want to find
Your dream, be sure
You don't wake up too soon
Or you'll find it easier
Shooting for the moon
Wise man, wise man
Which way shall I run
There's so many roads
So many ways to turn
I am 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
And be a wise man too
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 have the future If you need to find the truth And in his eyes I saw that it was so So I came right out And asked him The meaning of life And as he smiled I saw a twinkle in his eye 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, loving Waiting your turn It's the only way to Ease your concern If you want to find Your dream, be sure You don't wake up too soon Or you'll find it easier Shooting for the moon Wise man, wise man Which way shall I run There's so many roads So many ways to turn I am 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 And be a wise man too Explain Request ×
