Lyrics

Having visited the planet many times before Bluebird had always found that people he met couldn't accept him for what he was rather than how he looked with his blue skin and wings they either ran away from him or tried to harm him. He makes mental contact with a young blind boy and tells him stories of past and future in the form of visions and amongst these visions he places a picture of himself. The boy is not disturbed by the visions but confused by all that Bluebird tells him.
 Take a trip back in time
 Life evolving growing higher
 Not just space that bluebird sees
 in the sea a new domain
 Evolution
 Swimming forth came on land
 beast to ape grasping hands
 thinking kill never ran
 lived in caves enter man
 Evolution
 Tamed the fire prophesied
 Length of day and height of sky
 Made his tools chased his meal
 Then progressed he built the wheel
 Falling down from heaven
 Twisted leaves – so twisted
 Still so strong after all those
 L–I–E–S
 I can see the meaning
 Twisted Trees – so twisted
 Spin the wheel of never ending
 T–I–M–E
 Blessed were the ways of the creatures in their caves
 Who hold the last clue in the life of me and you
 They had the fight to make good their rights
 And Bluebird could not stir
 Who — who made you? Who made me?
 Whose are the eyes of the world that looked at me?
 Falling from their saddles
 Victories lost battles
 Spin the wheel of never ending
 L–I–F–E
 Blessed were the ways of the sinners in their graves
 Who saved the last place in the shade for me and you?
 Forty Thousand teeth were bared
 As if to rip the flesh already torn
 Who — who made you? Who made me?
 Whose were the eyes of the world
 that looked at me?
 I was the first to see it all when the rainbow
 crossed the bridge at dawn
 Forty billion miles I came to tell this
 Tale already told
 Who — who made you? Who made me?
 Whose are the eyes of the world were
 looking through?
 Remember the first time
 I came here the last time
 Remember the future will always be there
 But now that its over
 I'll see you the next time
 Remember the future is yours
 And now that you've seen me
 I see its behind you
 Remember the future will always be there
 And so I have told you
 You see what's before you
 Remember the future is yours
