When I Was a Boy
Once upon a time
in a world...
You cannot see,
was a place for you and me
Fields in which to run
Enchanted trees to climb...
In a land of beautiful sun
This was a time...
Long ago, far away
how I ache...
For those days...
When a Heartstone,
lay in my heart,
and I learnt the Wise Ways
The sound of lute filled the air
Magic too
Trees of soft colour,
shaded the castle from view
So many places to play
Enchanted rooms
Nooks and crannies
Finding a hiding way
The changing seasons
Beautiful in their nature
Queens and Kings
The way of things
Such joy and harmony,
amongst the whispering trees
A Stream of Sighs
Watching Heartstone eagles fly
This was a time...
For a young boy,
to lie back in a field of corn
The King of Air sculpting clouds
Watching eagles fly
Faeries being born...
This was a time...
Once upon a time,
in a world you once saw
Behind a secret door...
Is a place for you and me
