Cat
Peter and The Wolf - Prog Fairytale Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Time goes slowly oversea
I'm laying in my bed
Feeling a tí are next to me
And the sparks were flying when a tí said
How could I forget tu face?
Why would I leave a tí again?
Time goes slowly in my dreams
The sparks are flying over me
When I've run away my heart broke into pieces
Now I'm missing a tí
How could I forget tu face?
Why would I leave a tí again?
When we play like little cats
Running on the grass beneath our feet
Please slow down the time
With tu love




How could I forget tu face?
Why would I leave a tí again?

My one year old dos not sit still... unless she's watching your fantastic rendition of Peter and the Wolf. Her favourite part is the bird, and she never hesitates to wave at it whenever it's flying about and "singing". Thank you for this amazing gift of music and animation that we can share together early in the morning while mum still sleeps!
