There was a boy
A very strange enchanted boy
They say 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 then we spoke of many things
Fools and kings
And this he said to me
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"
