Lyrics

I sailed a wild, wild sea Climbed up a tall, tall mountain I met an old, old man Beneath a weeping willow tree He said, "Now if you got some questions Go and lay them at my feet But my time here is brief So you'll have to pick just three" And I said, "What do you do With the pieces of a broken heart And how can a man like me remain in the light? And if life is really as short as they say Then why is the night so long?" And then the sun went down And he sang for me this song See, I once was a young fool like you Afraid to do the things that I knew I had to do So I played an escapade, just like you I played an escapade, just like you I sailed a wild, wild sea Climbed up a tall, tall mountain I met an old, old man He sat beneath a sapling tree He said, "Now if you got some questions Go and lay them at my feet But my time here is brief So you'll have to pick just three" And I said, what do you do With the pieces of a broken heart And how can a man like me remain in the light? And if life is really as short as they say Then why is the night so long?" And then the sun went down And he played for me this song
