Wise Man In Your Heart - Daevid Allen

Wise Man In Your Heart — daevid allen, mike howlett,

Pierre moerlen

I met a man a wise old man

The day I lost my pride

He told me he belonged to me But from me he would hide

But that I would not hear his voice

Until I learned to sing

Now every time I sing I know that I belong to him

Singing Oh why

Singing Oh why

He told me he would teach me everything I tried to know

He made me see that you & me are dreamers in a show

& when the days were darkest then

He lit them with his moon

& then we crossed the rainbow bridge

& we came back too soon

Singing Oh why

Singing Oh why

He showed me where he was Atman

That man I could not see

He pointed to the sky until

A ladder I could see

I climbed for many lives to find the secret golden

Flower

But then I woke & found I’d slept for less than half an Hour

Where is your wise man?

How is the wise man?

Who is this wise man?

Who is this wise man?

He brought us all together then

When I was all alone

He made me see that we could not

Be only flesh & bone

Well it makes you feel so beautiful

You can tell yourself apart

Every time you listen to The wise man in your heart
