Lyrics
Charlie:
1, 2, 3, 4
Melody:
When the stars were strung
Was the first song that was sung
Lightin' up a world
Made for a boy and girl
And love was new
As morning dew
The first song I knew
Told of skies forever blue
Clouds that disappear
My darling dear
The first song I heard
Was the warbling of a bird
Sending around
A soulful sound
Deep as the sea
Like you and me
And it's always a song
And the changes that belong
Melodies that bring
The first song we sing
The first song we sing
