Somewhere in the early morning,
|
Quietly the boy appears.
|
Time is standing still for someone,
|
His journey took ten thousand years.
|
|
Slowly as he looks around him,
|
More than wonder in his eyes.
|
Turns his head towards the city,
|
Hiding in a child's disguise.
|
|
What is his name?
|
He looks the same from here.
|
And how can a child with imaginings wild
|
Give us something to fear?
|
Zaragon, Zaragon.
|
When you're sad, do you cry,
|
Could you teach me to fly
|
And will you ever die, Zaragon?
|
|
Everywhere so much confusion
|
Crying out for helping hands.
|
Answering a young boy's questions,
|
Frightened that he understands.
|
Do you remember what lies beyond a star and
|
Do you remember how you came so far?
|
Hiding traces, do you have many faces?
|
Oh Zaragon...
|
Do you remember what did you leave behind and
|
Do you remember what did you hope to find here?
|
Will you remember me? Will you remember me?
|
I will remember you, I will remember you,
|
Zaragon!
|
|
Leaving as he came a stranger,
|
On his way without a sound,
|
Feeling more than childhood sorrow
|
Deep inside the world he found.
|
|
Zaragon, the boy no longer,
|
Knowing what he came to learn.
|
And someone who could just be dreaming
|
Is waiting for a child's return.
