I wish I could go back
To those fairy book tales
Forget the real world
And seek the seas of the talking whales
A place of wishing wells and magic spells (2x)
Where everything starts out
Once upon a time long, long ago
And ends happily ever after

I could go up the hill and run with Jill
The giant could smell I'm no Englishman
Cinderella danced with me at the ball
I told the queen of hearts about my plan
I traveled Wonderland with Alice
I met with Snow White in the woods
I flew with Peter Pan in Neverneverland
Picked some berries with Miss Red Riding Hood

I wish I could go back
To those fairy book tales
Forget the real world
And seek the seas of the talking whales
A place of wishing wells and magic spells (2x)
Where everything starts out
Once upon a time long, long ago
And ends happily ever after

I could be an outlaw in the west
Save some damsels in distress
You could sleep a hundred years
I will wake you up with a kiss
We'll swim the seven seas
We can make love more than twice
Fly like dragons in the skies
We could hang around on trees
Or buzz around like bees
We can make some honey
We don't need no money baby
Just turn your back
You'll see jumpin' jellybean sacks
Just wait for me Jack
I'll be back, I'll be back

I wish I could go back
To those fairy book tales
Forget the real world
And seek the seas of the talking whales
A place of wishing wells and magic spells (2x)
Where everything starts out
Once upon a time long, long ago
And ends happily ever after
