This song speaks obviously about a clash between Galactus and his long-time loyal servant, the Silver Surfer. Galactus (the Great Destroyer) wants to obliterate the Earth, and sends the Silver Surfer to our planet to act as a spearhead. Despite his initial loyalty to Galactus, the Surfer changes his mind (because his love for the human race) and tries to stop him. Galactus 'passes through him like a knife', but still the Silver Surfer somehow manages to save the world, something that, given the tremendous threat posed by the cosmic power of Galactus, 'nobody dreamed'.

The song is a mourn to the Surfer, who is gone.
