Lyrics by Sarah Jacob

LOVERS OF WISDOM

Verse 1

Suddenly you find yourself

50 years from where you started from

Time it flies

But clichés they hide

The truth

Because time takes time.

Chorus 1

And lovers of wisdom

Have the greatest faith

Believing there is wisdom

In the irrational human race

Verse 2

Time lapse through

A mirage of memories

The winding road

Of your tapestry.

You cannot help

But weave a web through time

It’s the artwork of your

Beautiful mind.

Chorus 2

And lovers of wisdom

Will always find

The meaning beyond meaning

That is written between the lines

Of the lines.

 

Bridge

You could’ve been

A butcher, a baker or a candlestick maker

You could’ve been

A biologist, a psychologist or any other kind of gist

If you know what I mean.

You could have been a priest or politician

Or something more useful

Like a magician or an electrician

But it’s far too late

For your apology

You chose philosophy

Oh dear me

Philosophy

Oh dear me.

Verse 3

Suddenly you find yourself

50 years from where you started from

Time is such a revolving door

It always leaves you wanting more.

Chorus 3

But you’re a lover of wisdom

You will never betray

The truth and the beauty

That is hidden inside

Every day

You chose a beautiful way

You chose a beautiful way.
