Simply a man

A Guru you are not
But a man with a beard
Donning a cape and a crown
The wisdom you have brought
The miracles that appeared
Have touched me deep down
You are a Father, an Artist,
the head of a clan
But all in all, you are simply a Man
Incomplete and unbalanced
Mixed up and confused
Moody and funny and often amused
Imperfect and Whole
Heart and Soul
You spread your light
Create warmth in my heart
But still you trip and fall
In your own right
You make fine art
And inspire all
You are a Father, an Artist,
the head of a clan
But all in all, you are simply a Man
Incomplete and unbalanced
Mixed up and confused
Moody and funny and often amused
Imperfect and Whole
Heart and Soul
(Bridge)
Stay with me and Share
Your sounds and your stones
Your symbols and your Lines
I will say a Prayer
For your skin and bones
To enjoy many good times
(modulatie)
You’re not a man of means
Yet Royalty you meet
And Gifts, and Talents too
You speak with Kings and Queens
Of what is incomplete
And who is leading whom
You are a Father, an Artist, the head of a clan
But all in all, you are simply a Man
Incomplete and unbalanced
Mixed up and confused
Moody and funny and often amused
Imperfect and whole
Heart and Soul
Imperfect and whole
Heart and Soul
Imperfect and whole
Heart and Soul
