Song: The Learned Man

There's a man on a hillside
Overlooking the western sea
As I asked him one simple question
He looked away from me
Now he was old
And live a learned life
This man knew more than most men will
And still I asked him the same question
He retained his silence still
I stood there gazing at the trees and the ocean
Wondering why he wouldn’t speak
Then it came to me in one quick motion
And I apologized for interrupting his peace
I walked away, thanking him inside
For answering my questions and saving my pride
He'd answered me the only way he could
The time had taught him much a man and so he understood
Now I know the lesson by the sea
I must have an answer the only one to ask is me
