[00:00.82]The old man sat on the corner
[00:05.38]
[00:07.06]He had a magic ring
[00:14.36]
[00:15.49]And when the day was on fire
[00:20.85]He called up serpents and things
[00:25.10]With his magic ring
[00:28.65]
[00:33.89]The serpents flew to the mountain
[00:39.07]
[00:39.88]Changed into butterfly trees
[00:46.57]
[00:47.75]Took the jewels from the morning dew
[00:53.80]
[00:54.42]Took the stars from the sky
[01:00.85]Put them all together
[01:05.72]And made a chain around the world
[01:09.09]Of eyes
[01:10.66]Around the world
[01:12.21]Of eyes
[01:14.70]
[01:19.20]The road it changed to incense stones
[01:24.38]
[01:25.19]All burning in the day
[01:30.49]
[01:31.74]When the stones caught fire
[01:36.36]
[01:36.98]The children couldn't stay away
[01:44.97]
[01:50.55]The old man's name was Winters
[01:54.73]
[01:56.29]He stopped the children at their play
[02:01.56]
[02:02.56]They felt the cold coming
[02:06.68]And they put their toys away
[02:13.04]They put their toys away
[02:17.60]
[02:21.40]The old man stole all the magic in the street
[02:26.27]
[02:27.89]Walked on down the road
[02:32.95]
[02:33.95]Walked on by where the children had been
[02:38.75]They never were children again
[02:43.50]Never were children again
[02:51.80]
