• Way back when,
    When the Earth was new,
    When the skies shined
    The brightest blue
    God talked to people
    And people talked back, too.
    But day
    By day
    The skies get
    More gray
    When will the
    Grey fade
    And the blue
    Come back to stay?

    Way back when,
    When the Earth was new,
    When the skies shined
    The brightest blue
    There was a double-wedding
    Of Joy and Love
    and Hope and Belief.
    Both couples each
    Had a baby:
    Joy and Love
    Named their darling boy
    Happiness
    And Hope and Belief
    Named their beautiful daughter
    Faith.
    Happiness and Faith
    Grew up together
    Couldn't stand being
    Without each other.
    But, one day
    Faith passed away
    And Happiness just
    Couldn't bear it.
    Happiness killed himself
    For, without Faith
    Happiness
    Couldn't be.
