Nature Boy (first Version) Lyrics

John Coltrane Nature Boy (first Version)

There was a boy, a very strange enchanted boy
They say he wandered very far, very far, over land and
sea
A little shy and sad of eye, but very wise was he
And then one day, a magic day he passed my way
And while we spoke of many things, fools and kings

This he said to me:

"The greatest thing you'll ever learn
Is just to love and be loved in return"
