May I Show You the Way?
May I tell you something I learned?
But no
You must learn it yourself
Or something else
Something more appropriate
More important
To you
May I show you the way?
Ah
But I know only my way
And it circled round some lakes
Climbed some hills
Tripped over many a rock
Which might easily have been seen and avoided
No
Let me continue my own journey
Guided by my own star
And merely wish you well
And ask the moon
To light your path at night
May I tell you something I learned?
But no
You must learn it yourself
Or something else
Something more appropriate
More important
To you
May I show you the way?
Ah
But I know only my way
And it circled round some lakes
Climbed some hills
Tripped over many a rock
Which might easily have been seen and avoided
No
Let me continue my own journey
Guided by my own star
And merely wish you well
And ask the moon
To light your path at night
