remember back in primary school

how we'd put on pantomimes

for our parents?


I'd be Wendy, you, Tiger Lily...

and she who was lucky enough to join us

could choose between Peter and Hook.

(your teddy bear got the other role)


it's funny how a simple dress and a headband

could transport us to a whole other world...

Neverland.


but our Neverland was different.

you see, a teddy bear can't save you from an evil pirate,

or succeed in playing the evil pirate himself.


in our Neverland, all we needed was each other;

together, we could fly straight on till morning

and neither of us would notice the hours ticking by.


it's a real pity you can't fly in pantomimes

but you can in dreams

I've done it, and I hope someday you will too my friend

before we grow up for good.
