Wisdom Songtext
von Jonny Lang

Yeah, wisdom can′t come too early
For a young man with the whole world in his hand
Yeah, wisdom can't come too fast
For a boy who will not heed the warning
And it′s too late to turn back
Oh, wisdom

And when he sees he was defeated by
What he believed was only right
Was really just another lie
That's when he'll cry
Oh, wisdom
Oh yeah
Yeah, for wisdom

Yeah, wisdom came too late


For the old man
And now it′s too late to wash the blood from his hands
Now he′ll cry wisdom
Oh, many times I heard him say
Any price you have to pay
Will be worth it on that fateful day
When yours is the life that says
Hey, you'll be glad

You′ll be so glad
Oh
You could've wasted all

Wisdom, hey

Wisdom, hey

She′s crying out in the street

Crying out for you
You need it, you need it, you need it
Got the cure for my foolish ways
I turned my back on
I can't, I can′t turn away, no
I can't turn away, no
I won't turn away
I can′t look, no, but turn away

I′m losing sleep
I can feel it
My life is on the line now

Ooh

She cries so sweet
