Lyrics

Shhh, maybe I just wasnt meant to have children Don't say that, of course you were meant to have children But how can I go about being a father when I had no father to show me? Just calm the child Yes, calm the child Look, tell him the story of how it all happened Be father and mother you'll know what to do Alone... Sometimes people leave you halfway through the wood Do not let it grieve you No one leaves for good You are not alone No one is alone Hold him to the light now Let him see the glow Things will be alright now Tell him what you know Once upon a time In a far off kingdom There lay a small village at the edge of the wood. Careful the things you say And in this village there lived a young maiden (children will listen) (Careful the things you do) A carefree young lad (Children will see) And a childless baker (and learn) With his wife... Guide them along the way, Children will glisten Children will look to you for which way to turn To learn what to be Careful before you say 'Listen to me.' Children will listen. Careful the wish you make, Wishes are children Careful the path you take, Wishes come true. Not free. Careful the spell you cast, Not just on children Sometimes the spell may last Past what you can see, And turn against you. Careful the tale you tell That is the spell Children will listen
