(instrumental) (verse) Across the forest, I suppose I heard your name. Long as the logs could know, through the ice and underflow, I couldn't tell you what it means. But the river whispered your fame. Hummingbirds told a secret to me, That you were lost and oh-so-free, I couldn't tell you what it means. (pre-chorus) So step on up, ring the bell, tell the missus I'll be home by ten, drive to the mountain peak and then, give mother nature such a song. (Chorus) I knew an old man who once played for you, across the moon and the morning skies. Where he never knew what he ought to know and only told what he had to tell, and what was wise. Is this but a pause in a symphony, of morning dew and golden leaves blowing in the breeze? All I know, and can say to you, is that I couldn't tell you what it means. (instrumental) (verse) Across the lake, I suppose I felt your touch. The walleye play along to the beat, And the children laugh and stomp their feet, I couldn't tell you what it means. And so, the mountains told me much. Through eagle's eyes we all seem small, And the hopeless men all seem so tall, I couldn't tell you what it means. (pre-chorus) So step on up, play a chime. You'll make the words and I'll play the rhyme. We'll laugh and sing 'till we've lost the time, and this is how the song shall ring. (Chorus) I knew an old man who once played for you, across the moon and the morning skies. Where he never knew what he ought to know and only told what he had to tell, and what was wise. Is this but a pause in a symphony, of morning dew and golden leaves blowing in the breeze? All I know, and can say to you, is that I couldn't tell you what it means. (Instrumental) (outro) I couldn't tell you what it means...
