(Kerry Livgren / Steve Walsh)
|
He had a thousand ideas, you might have heard his name
|
He lived alone with his vision
|
Not looking for fortune or fame
|
Never said too much to speak of
|
He was off on another plane
|
The words that he said were a mystery
|
Nobody's sure he was sane
|
|
But he knew, he knew more than me or you
|
No one could see his view, Oh where was he going to
|
|
He was in search of an answer
|
The nature of what we are
|
He was trying to do it a new way
|
He was bright as a star
|
But nobody understood him
|
"His numbers are not the way"
|
He's lost in the deepest enigma
|
Which no one's unraveled today
|
|
But he knew, he knew more than me or you
|
No one could see his view, Oh where was he going to
|
And he tried, but before he could tell us he died
|
When he left us the people cried,
|
Oh where was he going to?
|
|
He had a different idea
|
A glimpse of the master plan
|
He could see into the future
|
A true visionary man
|
But there's something he never told us
|
It died when he went away
|
If only he could have been with us
|
No telling what he might say
|
|
But he knew, he knew more than me or you
|
No one could see his view
|
Oh, where was he going to
|
But he knew, you could tell by the picture he drew
|
It was totally something new,
|
Oh where was he going to?
