Shh... please
Maybe I just wasn't 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
Just 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 all right 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 woods
(Careful the things you say) And in this village
(Children will listen) Lived a young maiden
(Careful the things you do) A care-free 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 they 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
