Paroles de Old Man

I once knew a man
Been everywhere in the world
Gave me a tiny ivory ball
Said it would bring me good
Never believed it would until I have been loving you
A dear old man
He'd seen most everything
Gave me a piece of good advice
Said it would do me well
I couldn't really tell until I have been loving you

Now it seems
Things are not so strange
I can see more clearly
Suddenly I found my way
I know the old man would laugh
He spoke of lost sweeter days
And in his eloquent way
I think he was speaking of you
You are so lovely
You didn't have to say a thing

But I remember that old man
Telling me he'd seen the light
Gave me a small brown leather book
Dear old man
Wise old man
Fine old man
