[ Featuring Daevid Allen ]
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 and me are dreamers in a show
And when the days were darkest then
He lit them with his moon
And then we crossed the rainbow bridge
And 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 and 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 and bone
Well it makes you feel so beautiful
You can tell yourself apart
Every time you listen to
The wise man in your heart
