Peter Hammill
Wendy & the Lost Boy
[Verse 1]
Dear Wendy, I still believe the promises
We swore upon when we were magic
This came to me as in a dream:
My heart was in your hands
Wendy, do you believe in promises?
The problem is the boy became a man

[Verse 2]
Wendy – mother, child, lover – everything
You meant to me lives on in memory;
To think of how we broke each other's hearts
Is more than I can stand
Wendy, were we in love eternally
Or were we just in never-never land?

[Bridge]
Sometimes the boy denies the man
Sometimes the boy defies the man
Flying in the shade of Peter Pan....

[Verse 3]
Oh, Wendy, maybe you still remember this:
A touch, a kiss that lasts forever...
But time and tide rush in conspiracy:
All love is damned
Wendy, I still believe the promise is
The boy's alive, the boy is in the man
