Lyrics

Once upon a time
Long ago, today
A simpleton was born
And boredom ran away

Nowhere to begin
Looking for a sign
Nowhere left to go
Except a crooked line

Falling away, towards another's
Stealing a glance at eachother's
Last thing to stop is the start of wrong(?)

Seven chapter change
Any hope, a chance
And happiness began
Celebratory dance

Any hope, a gaze (?)
With revel, stepped around
With childish kind nature
You're laughing at the sound

Stopping at last, set away storm
Drift, sparkle deep, supersede form (?)
Everyone stop just to sing along

Blindly looking at the way you dance around here
Spinning right behind a light, a time we see you glow

We are here to sing
'bout each and everything
And we are here to know
And we are here to show

Floating without wings
Above the highest kings
And maybe as we go
And feeling as we flow

la, la, la-la-la
la, la, la-la-la-la
la, la, la-la-la
la, la, la-la-la-la
