There was a man came to our town[00:00:02]

He wore a suit of red[00:00:08]

He memorized with secret eyes[00:00:13]

That he hid away in his head[00:00:16]

He had a scar upon his head[00:00:24]

Where there used to be a crown[00:00:29]

But he sold his robes at the five and ten[00:00:33]

And lived on the edge of town[00:00:38]

That fall he showed us a magic leaf[00:00:45]

That he could change to snow[00:00:50]

He bought it partly with his grief[00:00:55]

And partly with his soul[00:00:59]

He scattered seeds in the alley way[00:01:06]

He never seemed to rest[00:01:11]

And when you went to ask him why[00:01:15]

All he ever said was yes[00:01:19]

He made a swan from waving grass[00:01:27]

Beside a crystal shore[00:01:32]

And a sunrise spun from broken glass[00:01:37]

And many things wondrous more[00:01:40]

But then his hands began to burn[00:01:47]

When he heard the news from the war[00:01:52]

When we cannot find each other he said[00:01:57]

Then we can't run away any more[00:02:01]

Next day with tears along his face[00:02:08]

He passed us on the hill[00:02:13]

No one thought to ask him to stay[00:02:18]

And he knows that we never will[00:02:22]

There was a man came to our town[00:02:29]

He wore a suit of red[00:02:34]

He memorized with secret eyes[00:02:39]

That he hid away in his head[00:02:43]
