There once was once upon a time
Where dew drops fell and kept my mind
At ease where peace was sought and found
A path neared trail of Heaven bound
Here the green of shire spread
Her home my heart felt right light led
A call to breathe once more if just this day
The perfumed air of yesterdays
Her sandalwood scent and blond sweet locks
Kept love sought for upon earth rocked
The world I wished for and sweet dreams
Where landscaped love upon me schemed
A better day, a better cause
A life upon this Earth to pause
To feel again alive and well
To feel in Shire, casting its spell
Dreams where fools become this day
The prince keeps watch maybe today
Will rest their head and wearied soul
Finds its place for keeps and hold
