Lyric If You Be Wise

See her candle,
Waver in the window of her summer night.
Lying on the breeze,
She tries to fall asleep.
Flights of fancy,
Dancing through her memories like Arabian Nights.
He is riding on his wings of fire,
And flies away.
She can still hear him say.

If you ll be wise,
If you ll be smart,
Don t let a travelin man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Don t let it start,
You ll think you re different from the rest.
You ll try to do your part,
Until he breaks your heart.

Lunch for the lonely,
Looking at picture postcards of someone else s scene.
Somehow they don t seem real,
The sea s too green.
Somebody calls her,
Giving out information,
About the boy on the moon.
Suddenly it s all too much,
To be told,
What she already knows.

If you ll be wise,
If you ll be smart,
Don t let a travelin man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Don t let it start,
Cause you ve been told too many times.(Instrumental)

If you ll be wise,
If you ll be smart,
Don t let a travelin man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Don t let it start,
Cause you ve been told too many times.

If you ll be wise,
If you ll be smart,
Don t let a travelin man take your heart.
Take my advice,
Don t let it start,
Cause when he comes and needs a friend,
He ll do it all again.

Better be smart,
He s breakin your heart,
Find you another lover.
Better be wise,
And open your eyes,
This time.
