Beautiful song and one of my favorite by Styx. Lyrics seem straightforward, but I didn't know (see earlier comments) Tommy Shaw wrote this before joining Styx.
Song seems to be about young man contemplating future:
Wonder what tomorrow has in mind for me Or am I even in it's mind at all
Perhaps I'll get a chance to look ahead and see
As the song progresses this curiosity becomes more frantic leading up to search for a "crystal ball" to get a glimpse of what future may be like.
I understand all about fear of an uncertain future, and it makes sense to me that a young songwriter like Tommy Shaw would be very fearful if making the right decision to dedicate his life to making music.
