We believe in fairytales
And sweet dreams
And nightmares
We adore heroes
Who save lives
And make sacrifices
But there is this story
About a boy
With a lightning scar
On his forehead
We joined him
And his friends
On their journey
'Til it has ended
The letter we received
On a summer holiday
Then and there we believed
That such thing existed
We entered a different world
Where magic filled the air
Full of wonder we were
And so was the boy who lived
The train, the boat
And the gigantic wooden doors
The songs, the feast
And the famous Great Hall
We patiently waited
For the names to be called
As the tradition of Sorting
We abide by the rules
Were we brave and bold
Or cunning and ambitious
Were we just and loyal
Or full of wit and clever
We met at the common room
We earned points during classes
We learned spells, charms, and hexes
Even unforgivable curses
We rode our very first broom
And drove a flying car
We played Quidditch
And won the House Cup
But that wasn't just
Fun times we had
We also got to face
The darkest from the past
We fought dementors
Faced Death Eaters
Almost lost by numbers
But we never surrendered
We found the Stone
And knew who to trust
We entered the Chamber
And watched Him turn to dust
We saw the Prisoner
And felt that we're loved
We were there when his name
Appeared on the Goblet
When he and his friends knew
The secret Order of the Phoenix
When the identity of the
Half Blood Prince was revealed
And when we found out
Of the Hallows' existence
His journey has ended
But more is yet to come
For the mysteries in their world
Had only just begun
We'll miss the chocolate frogs
The moving paintings
And the stairs
The wands who choose
The wizards when held
In their hands
We'll have the memories
In our hearts forever
The boy who lived
By the name Harry Potter
