Swimming Pool

Now, it’s Story Time
And the candles are burning down low
'Cause it’s late and there’s nowhere to go
And I’m listening
As you’re taking the shoes off your feet;
There’s a smile as you hand them to me
Chorus: I don’t want to hear it from anyone else
(Once upon a time)
I’ll listen to you or be here by myself
(Far across the sea)
Tell me it all and make it feel like it happened to me
It’s gonna be a long night
Only the coffee remains
Bets on the long shot
Animals answer their names
And I know my name too
Now it’s Story Time
And the ferrets are loose in the den;
Turn your back and they’re stealing again
As a small child
There’s a magic that rides on the wind;
Blink your eyes, you’re eleven again
Now it’s Story Time
When you believe and the wishes come true
On a lamp or a star? Is it you?
There’s a long pause
For a moment I can’t even breathe
But your eyes are still talking to me
It’s gonna be a long night
Only the coffee remains
Bets on the long shot
Animals answer their names
And I know my name too
Yeah, it’s Story Time
