Neverland
Zayion McCall Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There was a time when I was alone
No where to go and no place to call home
My only friend is the man in the moon
And even sometimes he would go away too.

Then one night, as I closed my eyes,
I saw a shadow flying high
He came to me with the sweetest smile
Told me he wanted to talk for awhile
He said:
Peter Pan that's what they call me
I promise that you'll never be lonely
And ever since that day...

I am a lost boy from Neverland
Usually hanging out with Peter Pan
And when we're bored we play in the woods
Always on the run from Captain Hook
Run, run, lost boy they say to me
Away from all of Reality

Neverland is home
to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free
Neverland is home
to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free.

Lost boy trynna find a way
I been gone for a minute at least I'm here today
In between imagination and reality
Can I get a application working towards the happiness

Know its gone be hard to find
Guess I gotta start looking hoping
I'm not by myself
Journey gonna be lonely

Gonna be a good story
Heading to the Neverlands
Tink tink wit me got my flying buddy Peter Pan
Peter Pan
Peter Pan
Come take me away to the Neverlands
Peter Pan
Peter Pan
Come take me away to the Neverlands

Far far away wanna start again
I would rather be with you and see the very end
Everybody went away but you gave a hand
Made me realize you was my only friend

I am a lost boy from Neverland
Usually hanging out with Peter Pan
And when we're bored we play in the woods
Always on the run from Captain Hook
Run, run, lost boy they say to me
Away from all of Reality

Neverland is home
to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free
Neverland is home
to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free.

Running, running, running
We got the power, power, power
I see the fire, fire, fire
I know he's coming, coming, coming
Shots fired
Shots fired
Better run Peter Pan
Got the shots fired
Neverland
Neverland
Come take me away to Neverland

I am a lost boy from Neverland
Usually hanging out with Peter Pan
And when we're bored we play in the woods
Always on the run from Captain Hook
Run, run, lost boy they say to me
Away from all of Reality

Neverland is home
to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free
Neverland is home
to lost boys like me
And lost boys like me are free.




Lost boys like me are free
Lost boys like me are free

Overall Meaning

The song "NeverLand" by Zayion McCall depicts the story of a lost boy who has no place to call home, and his only friend is the man in the moon. However, one night he dreams of a shadow flying high who introduces himself as Peter Pan, and from that day on, the lost boy becomes a part of Neverland. In Neverland, he is free and has found a new family in Peter Pan and the other lost boys. The song portrays the concept of escaping reality and finding a place where you feel free and accepted. The lyrics show how a person can come out of their loneliness by just being welcomed into a group of loved ones.


The song's theme is based on Peter Pan, a character from J.M. Barrie's 1904 play, Peter Pan, or The Boy Who Wouldn't Grow Up. The song also has an upbeat tone with a combination of rap and pop music elements. The line 'run, run, lost boy' is a reference to the Lost Boys from the Peter Panfranchise, a group of orphaned boys who were brought to Neverland by Peter.

There was a time when I was alone
I used to be lonely


No where to go and no place to call home
I had no destination or shelter


My only friend is the man in the moon
I had no friends except the moon


And even sometimes he would go away too
Sometimes I felt like even the moon had abandoned me


Then one night, as I closed my eyes,
One night, as I slept,


I saw a shadow flying high
I saw a shadow soaring above me


He came to me with the sweetest smile
He approached me with a friendly face


Told me he wanted to talk for awhile
He said he wanted to have a discussion
