Be Wise
lying in still pastures
my vision came to me
lifes knowing masters
helped for me to see?
to know what is right
and knowing what is wrong
knowing when to fight
for that long lost song
when to hold on
when to let go
time to say yes
and time to say no
to make some mistakes
it is human to err
knowing when to take
when to say sir
when to makea bet
when to make a curse
not to do it yet!
with an empty purse
when to say sorry
and when to hold back
when not to tarry
it's a song that you lack.
