A Meeting of Minds Lyrics


"The priest and his housekeeper are made aware of the clues to find the

relic, he with his colour blindness sees the mysterious clues in the pictures of

the twelve stations of the cross, she with her astute mind solves the puzzle

and go to find whatever is hidden. When found they realize the significance

of the relic along with the writings of Rebecca they are surprised to learn

that the housekeeper Marie is in fact the direct descendant of Rebecca."

I ain't crazy but I ain't sane

Stuck with these visions in my brain

Within the church is something real

That my eyes will soon reveal

There rests twelve pictures on the walls

I see in them something more

A map left here to guide us

A map not seen by all

Only my colour blindness

Allows me to see the secret hidden there

What can it mean I do not know

Something hidden I am sure

A thing of portent I don't know

A mystery I know not more

A map to guide me I know not where

To something secret, should I care?

I must think on what to do

Perhaps discuss it, just us two

As a priest my path is known

Though as a man I stand alone

I was old and lonely so I changed it all

Took a woman oh so homely, I'll let her make the call

We'll work on this to find its meaning

Pictures don't always tell the story

Alone I feel I must be dreaming

I need help to solve this mystery

First we need to make a plan

A meeting of minds

Find out together what we can

A meeting of minds

Once we have a plan we'll go

A meeting of minds

To a place we do not know

A meeting of minds

First into the mountains we have to go

Across hilltops and beautiful valleys

Our progress is slow because of the snow

Our lamps pale in the shadows

Through the sunshine and the rain

Soiled and sweated all the same

Our work is soon rewarded our hopes are raised

The article defies description, a lamp, not even glazed

With the lamp are writings in a language that I know

The written words are faded but oh so legible to me

Within the writings that we share

A meeting of minds

With each page we must take care

A meeting of minds

Where tales of heresy unfold

A meeting of minds

A glowing relic oh so old

A meeting of minds

How frail our grasp of history

Betrayal right from the Holy See

Denial of what was meant to be

A wicker man, never a deity

Rage is something new to me rage, I feel let down

Rage so demoralizing so many lies so compromising

Rage at all the lies they told me, they told me

Rage a life wasted embellished with untruths to guide me

Rage!
