Fairy Tale



I Was Once Told
That The Sea Can Fly
That The Hills Can Run
And The Shades Will Hide

I Was Once Told
That The Sun Will Fade
That The Stars Will
Become Murky And Gloomy
And The Evening
Bright As Noonday

I Was Once Told
That You Will Be
My Leading Light
My Shinning Armour
My Ultimate Bliss.
