[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
As daybreak breaks the mist upon the earth
It came to pass that beauty
Settled there forever more
And as the steam clings close to things to come
It came to pass that solid rock
Did part for humble life
[Chorus]
Once upon a time there was confusion
Disappointment, fear and disillusion
Now there's hope reborn with every morning
See the future clearly at its dawning
[Post-Chorus]
Forever drifting slowly
Towards a hazy emptiness
Whilst water slips into the sea
The father's sad to see it free
[Verse 2]
As shadows creep towards their master night
It came to pass that trees defied the wind
Who shook their leaves
And as the peace descended all around
It came to pass that nature's creatures came
To face the world
[Chorus]
Once upon a time there was confusion
Disappointment, fear and disillusion
Now there's hope reborn with every morning
See the future clearly at its dawning
[Post-Chorus]
Forever drifting slowly
Towards a hazy emptiness
Whilst water slips into the sea
The father's sad to see it free
[Chorus]
Once upon a time there was confusion
Disappointment, fear and disillusion
Now there's hope reborn with every morning
See the future clearly at its dawning
Once upon a time there was confusion
Disappointment, fear and disillusion…
