8. A Story Never Told (7:11)
A story never told
A child in for surprise
A mother's heart on hold
A father well disguised
There is a road that leads to home
In stories never told
A story never told
A man that saved a child
His withered heart on hold
Beating for a lie
There is a road that leads to home
In stories never told
Now just a name in soon forgotten tales
In guileful circles of the past
A story never told
And waiting in the skies
A man's withered heart on hold
His heiress wears a stranger's eyes
A child in for surprise
A mother's heart on hold
A father well disguised
There is a road that leads to home
In stories never told
A story never told
A man that saved a child
His withered heart on hold
Beating for a lie
There is a road that leads to home
In stories never told
Now just a name in soon forgotten tales
In guileful circles of the past
A story never told
And waiting in the skies
A man's withered heart on hold
His heiress wears a stranger's eyes
