somewhere there's another land different from this world below
far more mercifully planned than the cruel place we know
innocence and peace are there, all is good that is desired
faces there are always fair, love grows never old nor tired

we shall never find that lovely land of might-have-been
I can never been your king nor you can be my queen
days may pass and years may pass and seas may lie between
we shall never find that lovely land of might-have-been

"The Land of Might-Have-Been", Ivor Novello
