There once was a land, some would call far You can find it beneath the forty-eighth star If you take a right turn at the end of the sky And then follow the tears that a child has cried
Magic will find you, once you are there It will come in the form of a blue dancing bear From the curve of his nose, to the gait of his pose To the belly that stops him from touching his toes You’ll love this blue bear, wherever he goes
“Come and dance!” called the bear From the gypsies green fire “And we’ll whirl and we’ll twirl ‘round the cloud castle’s spire
You can stay there forever Just you and the bear And you’ll never be lonely And you’ll never be scared But know, as your dancing feet leave the ground Once you’ve gone up You can never come down A life in the stars at the cloud castle’s fair Spinning forever with the blue dancing bear
