[00:11.88] Somewhere there's another land
[00:14.78] different from this world below,
[00:18.73] far more mercifully planned
[00:22.30] than the cruel place we know.
[00:27.44] Innocence and peace are there--
[00:32.06] all is good that is desired.
[00:36.46] Faces there are always fair;
[00:42.41] love grows never old nor tired.
[00:48.37]
[00:49.66] We shall never find that lovely
[00:53.98] land of might-have-been.
[00:58.22] I can never be your king nor
[01:02.07] you can be my queen.
[01:06.34] Days may pass and years may pass
[01:10.57] and seas may lie between--
[01:15.70] We shall never find that lovely
[01:20.07] land of might-have-been.
[01:23.80]
[01:24.77] Sometimes on the rarest nights
[01:28.64] comes the vision calm and clear,
[01:32.95] gleaming with unearthly lights
[01:36.47] on our path of doubt and fear.
[01:41.41] Winds from that far land are blown,
[01:46.52] whispering with secret breath--
[01:52.28] hope that plays a tune alone,
[01:58.54] love that conquers pain and death.
[02:04.76]
[02:06.27] Shall we ever find that lovely
[02:11.00] land of might-have-been?
[02:15.21] Will I ever be your king or you
[02:20.67] at last my queen?
[02:23.95] Days may pass and years may pass
[02:28.11] and seas may lie between--
[02:33.27] Shall we ever find that lovely
[02:38.18] land of might-have-been?
[02:42.63]
