Wise One - John Coltrane Quartet

I had a dream that all of time was running dry And life was like a comet falling from the sky I woke so frightened in the dawning, oh, so clear How precious is the time we have here Are we not wise enough to give all we are Surely we're bright enough to outshine the stars But human kind gets so lost in finding its way But we have a chance to make a difference til our dying day And you might pray to God or say it's destiny But I think we're just hiding all that we can be Are we not wise enough to give all we are Surely we're bright enough to outshine the stars But human kind gets so lost in finding its way We have a chance to make a difference til our dying day All I'm really asking is, what are we doing here Are we just killing time just living year to year In this big world, no one else can play our part Ain't it time to just wake up and give it all Are we not wise enough to give all we are Surely we're bright enough to outshine the stars But human kind gets so lost in finding its way We have a chance to make a difference til our dying day We have a chance to make a difference till our dying day We have a chance to make a difference till our dying day
