Lyrics

There was a boy,
A very strange, enchanted boy,
And though he wandered very far,
Very far,
Over land and sea,

A little shy,
And sad of eye,
But very wise was he,

And then one day,
One magic day,
He came my way,
And though we spoke of many things,
Fools and kings,
This he said to me,

The greatest thing
You'll ever learn
Is just to love
And be loved in return
