Long ago and far away[00:00:00]
In a land no map can find[00:00:06]
There lived in long forgotten days[00:00:12]
A boy who never cried[00:00:18]
He was his mother's only child[00:00:25]
So she never wondered why[00:00:30]
Until the news spread far and wide[00:00:36]
Of a boy who never cried[00:00:43]
From fabled lands the pilgrims came[00:00:55]
To behold the silent child[00:01:01]
In ancient tones they sang his name[00:01:07]
Over every lonely mile[00:01:13]
There were those who came in reverence[00:01:19]
There were those who stood outside[00:01:25]
And whispered low in quatrains dim[00:01:31]
Of a boy who never cried[00:01:38]
Days grew long and short until[00:01:51]
The seasons turned to years[00:01:56]
The child grew strong and fairer still[00:02:02]
With a face unstained by tears[00:02:08]
And every maid and lady fair[00:02:15]
Held her breath when he passed by[00:02:21]
For their mothers bid them all beware[00:02:27]
Of a man who never cries[00:02:33]
He lived alone for all his years[00:03:03]
And then on the day he died[00:03:09]
He shed a single precious tear[00:03:16]
For a boy who never cried[00:03:22]
