There was a little boy standing
With his little boy tears
And a broken heart
The other kids said
“You don’t belong with us
Just stay away!”

He was crying all day long
His whole world felt so wrong
When somewhere from the mountain
He heard a friendly song:

(joik)
Ey-oh-loa, ey-oh-loa
Lift your heart, rise above
And let the music guide you
Ey-oh-loa, ey-oh-loa
Spread your wings, shine your light
And let the music guide you

The old man stood by the lonely tree
One rainy day
The same place where they together
Used to laugh and play

Now with nobody else around
There was no hope to be found
When suddenly the tree would whisper
A familiar sound:
(Chorus)
