《The Boy Who Never Cried》歌词

[00:00:00] Long ago and far away

[00:00:06] In a land no map can find

[00:00:12] There lived in long forgotten days

[00:00:18] A boy who never cried

[00:00:25] He was his mother's only child

[00:00:30] So she never wondered why

[00:00:36] Until the news spread far and wide

[00:00:43] Of a boy who never cried

[00:00:55] From fabled lands the pilgrims came

[00:01:01] To behold the silent child

[00:01:07] In ancient tones they sang his name

[00:01:13] Over every lonely mile

[00:01:19] There were those who came in reverence

[00:01:25] There were those who stood outside

[00:01:31] And whispered low in quatrains dim

[00:01:38] Of a boy who never cried

[00:01:51] Days grew long and short until

[00:01:56] The seasons turned to years

[00:02:02] The child grew strong and fairer still

[00:02:08] With a face unstained by tears

[00:02:15] And every maid and lady fair

[00:02:21] Held her breath when he passed by

[00:02:27] For their mothers bid them all beware

[00:02:33] Of a man who never cries

[00:03:03] He lived alone for all his years

[00:03:09] And then on the day he died

[00:03:16] He shed a single precious tear

[00:03:22] For a boy who never cried
