Lyrics

I use to sit in the shade of an old cedar tree and I dream of the days,

I reminisce about sitting under an old cedar tree, dreaming about the future.

what they're holding for me.

Anticipation of what the future holds for the speaker.

But all those should know who gaze at the sky.

Those who contemplate the sky should understand.

It's for those who are wise.

Wisdom is associated with understanding the mysteries of the sky.

It's for those who are wise.

Reiteration of the importance of wisdom.


And the west winds would blow.

Reference to west winds and their symbolic communication.

They'd be singing to me.

The winds metaphorically speak and convey a message to the speaker.

They'd say, "Look, you, out yonder, just as far as you can see."

Encouragement to look ahead and envision distant possibilities.


But all those should know who gaze at the sky.

Emphasizes the importance of wisdom for those observing the sky.

It's for those who are wise.

Reiteration of the idea that wisdom is key.

It's for those who are wise.

Restates the message that wisdom is crucial.


And the years went their way as the good years will go.

Time passes, and the speaker reflects on the years that have gone by.

But my dreams linger on in the hills of my home.

Dreams persist in the speaker's memories, anchored in the hills of home.

And young men should know who gaze at the sky.

Youthful individuals should understand the significance of looking at the sky.

It is you who are wise, only you who are wise.

Wisdom is attributed to the young who gaze at the sky.


I used to sit in the shade of an old cedar tree.

Revisits the initial image of sitting under an old cedar tree.
