Land Before Time (Time After Time - Cyndi Lauper)

(The story of the first - and best - Land Before Time movie.)


Playing with my friend, I chase a hopper into a pond

Caught by a sharptooth, now my mom will not respond

Earthshake, Cera

Families left behind

Tree stars and memories,

Great Valley


You could have come with me; I'm walking alone instead

You find a sharptooth and you think that he is dead

But you're wrong, he wakes, you run to me

and Petrie and Ducky


You were scared, you show off, and then we find Spike

Land Before Time

Petrie can't fly and Ducky says "yup, yup, yup"

Land Before Time


We get lost, Petrie looks, and he smells Ducky

Land Before Time

Past the longneck-shaped rock, and the mountains on fire

Land Before Time


After the sharptooth dies and Petrie has learned to fly

Following clouds shaped like my mom up in the sky

Tree stars far as the eye can see

Great Valley, you and me


If you're lost we can go to the Great Valley

Land Before Time

No more sharptooths to catch you, tree stars are waiting

Land Before Time
