Intro
A Wise Old Master is lying in a bed,
Machines keep him alive, but soon he'll drop dead.
Sitting here in secret, our eyes finally meet,
What would you ask if you were in my seat?
Verse 1
"Wise Old Master, tell me how to make a fortune,
Should I travel round the world or to the moon?
If I take the blame for others, will that be of help?"
He smiled at me, shook his head, asked me to come near,
And when I drew in close, he whispered in my ear,..
Chorus
"Only the lucky make a fortune, and the lucky make a noise,
Only the lucky get a shot to ever realise,
That the moon is within reach, it's nearer than we think,
That we build a new world every time we blink.
And when they're looking up, standing on a beach,
Only the lucky know the moon is within reach".
Verse 2
"Wise Old Master, tell me now man to man,
Should I walk blind alleys with a master plan?
If I follow signposts, will they guide me on my feet?"
He smiled at me, shook his head, asked me to come near,
And when I drew in close, he whispered in my ear,..
Repeat Chorus
Repeat Chorus
End
And when you're looking up, standing on a beach,
Maybe someday you'll know the moon is within reach.
A Wise Old Master is lying in a bed,
Machines keep him alive, but soon he'll drop dead.
Sitting here in secret, our eyes finally meet,
