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
