Lyrics

He was leading us thru the dark.
He was sayin that "love goes on."
I was wanting some "ice cream." he knew exactly what I meant.
From the driver's seat in the dark.
He popped a tape in the dash of his car.
And when the singer started to scream.
I knew exactly what he meant.
I never knew for sure - what a wonderful man he was.
What a sensible man he was.
What a marvelous man he was.
Why do we love what is wrong?
Big devil told us to sing along.
And like a loving flock we obey - except 4 him - he went his own way.
I never knew for sure - what a wonderful man he was.
Till the day I found out his cause - was to do it for all of us.
