The Story of the Tucks

Once upon a time
 Once upon a time
 Can I start like that?
 Shouldn't start like that
 Be patient with me Winnie
 I've never told this before
 Once there was a man
 A man with a wife
 And a family
 That's Miles and me
 Jesse, let me tell the story
 I don't wanna start a war
 We tore from the west to settle in the east
 Looking for a farm or some land at least
 Get to the part where I fall from the tree
 No, you've got it all wrong
 Miles, Jesse
 Then we found a wood
 Yes, we found a wood
 Can you guess which wood
 Mine?
 You're good
 Where we found ourselves a clearing
 And camped for the night
 Just the four of us
 Plus the cat and the horse
 They play a crucial part
 Yes, Miles of course
 We slept by a spring near an old ash tree
 And thats where I carved a T
 Jesse!
 In the morning
 In the morning
 Miles, Jesse, May:
 We had no way of knowing
 Without even thinking we drank from the spring
 Who knew that spring would change everything
 Except for the horse
 Everybody drank
 Even the cat
 Remember that?
 You can lead a horse to water
 I think she knows the phrase
 So days went by
 Then months
 Then years
 With an ordinary life
 So it appears
 The old horse died at 25
 But the cat was still alive
 We weren't changing
 . Jesse:
 . We weren't changing
 . May:
 Miles: We weren't changing
 We weren't growing
 . Jesse:
 . We weren't growing
 All three:
 We had no way of knowing
 Nobody was thinking
 It's because of the spring
 Who knew that spring would change everything
 The town began to talk Jesse:
 People shyed away Winnie look at me
 They were so outraged we hadn't aged Winnie listen here though
 Our lives in pious Jesse:
 Our looks perverse I survived a tree fall
 He survived much worse
 Shut up Jesse
 May: Jesse:
 Still we didn't know Yes of course we knew
 Didn't know the spring How could we not know though
 Was the cause of it
 Or where we'd sit on the delacite balance Jesse:
 Between a blessing and a curse The greatest family
 In the universe
 Don't confuse the girl
 All three:
 The cat and the horse
 The T on the tree
 The drink that changed us eternally
 That's our secret keep it locked up tight
 But I still don't understand
 Enough
 Alright
 We're not aging
 We're not growing
 And none of us know why
 Once upon a time we drank from your spring
 And now we'll never die
 And that's the story of the Tucks
 The end
