lyrics

Open this story book
Do you recognise that face?
That boy is your grandfather
When he was just your age

He flew above this world
On a ladybird he saved
And he told me this same story
When I was just your age

Once upon a time, the boy who learned to fly
Saw the world from so very high
He learned many things, but felt the pain it brings
To see his father without wings
When he cried for the first time

When you were a baby
You couldn’t tie your shoes
But now you are 10 years old
And you should know the truth

That once upon a time you will learn to fly
And see the world from so, very high
You’ll learn many things, but feel the pain it brings
To see your loved ones without wings
When they cry for the first time

Oooh, I love you
Oooh, remember that I do
Oooh, please don’t cry
When I won't be here
To dry your eyes

This world is not what it should be
But there’s beauty if you try
You will grow into a man
And it’s okay to cry
