Well I spoke to this man,
Said he?d been to the moon,
Carved his name in the ground,
Saw the world spinning round,
And came back that afternoon.
And I laughed at this man,
Said he?d been lost at sea,
Heard the sirens call,
Seen the pirates fall,
To the monsters in the deep.
I said I?d heard some tall tales,
Some good stories in my time,
When I asked him for proof,
He just showed me the truth,
That was dancing in his eyes.
I could not believe this man,
When I came back in the room,
The man had disappeared,
