ONCE UPON A BOY

On a far away day I see running a boy

a gleam in the eye made of tales full of joy

illusions are real when I see the world through you

Then he turns around tells me that life isn't fair

still he believes in the powerful glare

of the tall man always there to protect you

Love to play hide and seek you enjoy trickin' minds

the demon inside said the truth is behind

the smile that you make when I finally find you

In a far away dream I keep calling your name

a land where we're free we are one and the same, finally

stay, come to me

You're the treasure I hold on to safe in my heart

'n yet I feel time's trying to tear us apart

don’t fade away my hand’s out there to reach you

All the effort is vain as it puts out the crave

that keeps you awake in this desolate plain

thriving where you, once grew there's a flame

Keep on strolling around tryin’ to bridge the divide

between the two ends coexisting inside

so distant that I .. I know they collide
