▶ #DreamTheater - The Count of Tuscany (London UK 7-24-2011) [Happy Holidays 2013] Several years ago In a foreign town Far away from home I met the Count of Tuscany A young eccentric man Bred from royal blood Took me for a ride Across the open countryside Get into my car Lets go for a drive Along the way Ill be your guide Just step inside Maybe you recall A cannibal curator A character inspired by my brothers life Winding through the hills The city far behind On and on we drove Down narrow streets and dusty roads At last we came upon A picturesque estate On sprawling emerald fields An ancient world of times gone by Let me introduce My brother A bearded gentleman Historian Sucking on his pipe Distinguished accent Making me uptight No accident I want to stay alive Everything about this place Just doesnt feel right I I dont want to die Suddenly Im frightened for my life I want to say goodbye This could be the last time You see me alive I- I may not survive Knew it from the moment we arrived Would you like to see Our secret holy place? I come here late at night To pray to him by candle light Then peering through the glass I saw with disbelief Still dressed in royal clothes The saint behind the altar History recalls During times of war Legend has been traced Back inside these castle walls Where soldiers came to hide In barrels filled with wine Never to escape These tombs of oak are where they died Down the cellar stairs I disappear Like the English heir The end is near Come and have a taste A rare vintage All the finest wines Improve with age I want to stay alive Everything about this place Just doesnt feel right I I dont want to die Suddenly Im frightened for my life I want to say goodbye This could be the last time You see me alive I I may not survive Knew it from the moment we arrived Could this be the end? Is this the way I die? Sitting here alone No one by my side I dont understand I dont feel that I deserve this What did I do wrong? I just dont understand Give me one more chance Let me please explain Its all been circumstance Ill tell you once again You took me for a ride Promising a vast adventure Next thing that I know Im frightened for my life Now wait a minute man Thats not how it is You must be confused That isnt who I am Please dont be afraid I would never try to hurt you This is how we live Strange although it seems Please try to forgive The chapel and the saint The soldiers and the wine The fables and the tales All handed down through time Of course youre free to go Go and tell the world my story Tell about my brother Tell them about me The Count of Tuscany
