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 Let's go for a drive Along the way I'll be your guide Just step inside
Maybe you'll recall A cannibal curator A character inspired by my brother's 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 doesn't feel right I I don't want to die Suddenly I'm 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 candlelight 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 angel's share The end is near
Come and have a taste A rare vintage All the finest wines Improved with age
I want to stay alive Everything about this place Just doesn't feel right I I don't want to die Suddenly I'm 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 don't understand I don't feel that I deserve this What did I do wrong? I just don't understand
Give me one more chance Let me please explain It's all been circumstance I'll tell you once again
You took me for a ride Promising a vast adventure The next that I know I'm frightened for my life
Now wait a minute man That's not how it is You must be confused That isn't who I am
Please don't 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 you're free to go Go and tell the world my story Tell about my brother Tell them about me The Count of Tuscany
