The Boy Who Doesn't Exist

I once knew a boy who showed me his eyes
And in them was an ocean of orange skies
There was a pink paradise and a yellow mist
I fell in love with a boy who doesn't exist

And the boy took me where no one would ever go
And we searched half the land looking high and low
Up the mountains of dreams and the dozens of streams
With the boy who doesn't exist

And when the time for me to go home
The boy kissed me farewell and I will never know
If he was an adaption of my mind or some kind
Of fantasy that doesn't exist

And the vivid blue of the faces that day
Gave me an excuse to run off and say
"I'll be back, I'll be back, just wait for me"
I'm going to go look for the boy who taught me to see

And we laughed and we grinned like anything
Then he sat me down and we started to sing
Songs of glory, and songs of pain
It's funny how I never found out his name

And the joy in my heart overcame my life
He makes me happy, makes me feel quite alright
But the only thing about this whole tale
I was being led down a road, a different trail

And I couldn't get home, couldn't see my way
I couldn't even tell if it was night or day
Then came the pink paradise, yellow mist
And I knew the boy would never exist

And when the time for me to go home
The boy kissed me farewell and I will never know
If he was an adaption of my mind or some kind
Of fantasy that doesn't exist

And the vivid blue of the faces that day
Gave me an excuse to run off and say
"I'll be back, I'll be back, just wait for me"
I'm going to go look for the boy who taught me to see

Who taught me to see
