Wisdom of the World Lyrics

Through ice and through fire
A wilderness of stone
With dreams and desires
I have come alone
Seeking the answers
Only you could know

* Show me the wisdom of the world
Tell me the secrets of the heart
And the sweet mysteries of love

Come fill my eyes with visions
So that I may see
Reveal the ancient powers
Whisper them to me
Here I stand before you
Ready to receive

Show me the wisdom of the world
Tell me the secrets of the heart
And the sweet mysteries of love

Does a place called paradise
Wait beyond the azure skies
Bright as day?
Look into your crystal ball
Read the future in the stars
Does it say?

Will I give my heart in vain
To a lover or a friend
Come what may?
Who to trust and where to turn
There's so much I've yet to learn
Show the way
I am down on my knees
Begging now, begging please
Show me the wisdom of the world
Tell me the secrets of the heart
And the sweet mysteries of love
