There was a time when I was a lone, with no where to go and no place to call home.
My on ly friend was The Man in the Moon, and e ven some times he would go a way too.
Then one night as I closed my eyes, I saw a shad ow fly ing high.
He came to me with the sweet est smile; told me he want ed to talk for a while.
He said,
“Pe ter Pan, that’s what they call me.
I prom ise that you’ll nev er be lone ly.” And ev
er
since
that
day...
I am a lost boy from Nev er land,
u sually hang ing out with
Pe ter Pan.
And when we’re bored, we play in the woods,
al ways on the run from
Cap tain Hook.
“Run,
run,
lost
boy,”
they say to me,
“a way
from
all
of
re al i ty.”
Nev er land is home to the lost boys like me; and lost boys like me are free.
Nev er land is home to the lost boys like me; and lost boys like me are free.
