Only Make Believe

Once upon a time
There were castles and kings
Fairy tales and horses with wings
Once upon a time there were witches and gnomes
Beauties and beasts
And gingerbread homes
(Refrain)
But you know
It’s only make believe
It’s only make believe
Just imagination running wild
And unless you’re still a child
It’s only make believe
Once upon a time
There was magic untold
Turning princes to frogs
And straw into gold
Once upon a time
There were dragons to slay
Kingdoms to win and gods to obey
(Repeat Refrain)
What’s become of the dragon slayers
Did they claim the holy grail?
Ad as for the wizards and the sooth sayers
Now they tell a new tale
Once upon a time
In a kingdom afar
On a beautiful sphere
Circling a star
Everyone in time turned to the sun
Finally saw the world as one…
And you know, it isn’t make believe
It isn’t make believe
It’s just a vision running wild
A prayer for every child
It’s not only make believe…
