Once upon a time In a far-off land
Wise men saw a star and set out 'cross the sand
They chased a brand-new star ever t'wards the West
'cross the mountains far when it came to rest
They scarce believed their eyes
They'd come so many miles
And this miracle they prized, he was nothing but a child
Nothing but a child could wash those tears away
Guide a weary world into the light of day
Now all around the world, in every little town
Every day is heard a precious little sound
And every mother kind, and every father proud
Was tending all to find another chance of life
Nothing but a child could wash those tears away
And guide a weary world into the light of day
Nothing but a child could help you rest those miles
So once again we all can be nothing but a child
