I was a warrior, many moon ago
Searching the empty space, between the high and low
I was a hopeful one and I always found a way
My words are smaller now, I don’t have as much to say
I was Dionisis and I, made some mistakes
Had enough of givin’ and I, decided to take
But I became a lonely fool and I, never got no where
I guess I had to live that life so I’d never go back there
Oo la la la la la la
Oo la la la la la la
I was a philosopher and I was reading some books
They claimed to have the truth so I, had to take a look
Some pages they will lock you up and they’ll promise you the key
It’s hard to know the cage is there for a man who doesn’t see
I was a wild one, used to, dance through the night
I slept the whole day and I barely saw the light
But all the parties and dancing and craziness got old
You nee the warm sunlight so your, heart doesn’t get cold
I am a family man and I’m, doing all I can
Life is simpler now but, ain’t it grand?
I still wanna see the world and I’ll grow as I go
Seeing from my mountain tops to my valleys down below
Oo la la la la la la
Oo la la la la la la
Oo la la la la la la
