 - 320003 (320033)(355433)
 I sailed a wild,  wild sea
 climbed up a tall,  tall mountain
 I met a old,  old man
 beneath a weeping  willow tree
 He said now if  you got some questions
 go and lay  them at my feet
 but my time  here is brief
 so you'll have  to pick just three
 And I said
What  do you do with the pieces of a broken heart?
 and how  can a man like me remain in the light?
 and if life  is really as short  as they say
 then why  is the night so long
 and then the sun  went down
 and he  sang for me this song
 See I once  was a young fool like  you
 afraid  to do the things
 that I knew  I had to do
 So I played  an escapade just like you
 I played  an escapade just like  you
 I sailed a wild,  wild sea
 climbed up a tall,  tall mountain
 I met an old,  old man
 he sat beneath  a sapling tree
 He said now if  you got some questions
 go and lay  them at my feet
 but my time  here is brief
 so you'll have  to pick just three
 And I said
What  do you do with the pieces of a broken heart?
 and how  can a man like me remain in the light?
 and if life  is really as short  as they say
 then why  is the night so long?
 and then the sun  went down
 and he  played for me this song
