There was a boy A very strange, enchanted boy They say he wandered very far, very far Over land and sea A little shy And sad of eye But very wise Was he And then one day A magic day he passed my way And while we spoke of many things, fools and kings This he said to me: "The greatest thing You'll ever learn Is just to love and be loved In return" Ooh ♪ Oh, and then one day A magic day he passed my way And while we spoke of many things, fools and kings This he said to me: "Oh, the greatest thing You'll ever learn Is just to love and be loved In return" Oh, won't you love nature boy? Oh, please love this nature boy
