back to satire

A cheap songwriter created these lyrics for a song in an animated version of Peter Pan, but the song was never used, for unexplained reasons.
 
Sonny Bono discovered the unused song, made slight changes to the lyrics, and the result was a hit single for Sonny and Cher.

Peter Pan and Wendy

Peter Pan, when you stand by my side
Then I know I don't have to hide from anyone
And I pray that we'll stay just that way
Till the day comes along when we catch the sun.
 
Little girl you're runnin'
Come catch my hand I'm near you
Little girl you're singin'
Come close to me I hear you
You're growin' old, my mothers cold
Now it's time that you've learned what it meant to be mature
There's no such place as make believe
But when I look at your face,
I'm not so sure
 
You and me is what I see
And that's the way it's gonna stay and it will always be
So Peter Pan, please understand
That in this world - a Neverland -
You're all I see
