RolandTonight, I surely know, she will love me.

SunnyI say, "Hey!" I be gone today,

But I'll be back around the way.

It seems like everywhere I go,

The more I see, the less I know.

But I know one thing, I love you,

I love you, I love you, I love you.

Been a lot of places all around the way,

I've seen a lot of joy

and I've seen a lot of pain.

But I don't want to write a love song

for the world,

I just want to write a song

about a boy and a girl.

Hear them on the corner...

Marianne *spots Roland*

Roland*dances with an Elf Villager*

Hi, sweet thing. I'm Roland. What's your name?
