Lyrics

[Verse 1] The willow tree by the wishing well Saw the fireflies dance but he won't tell It's a secret he'll keep but he knows very well I know [Verse 2] The field mouse runs from his nest by the road To tell the news to the friendly toad They think they're the only ones that know But I know [Refrain] I know 'cause I was there Having my tea with a teddy bear I won't tell, I wouldn't dare 'Cause I promised [Refrain] I know 'cause I was there Having my tea with a teddy bear I won't tell, I wouldn't dare 'Cause I promised [Verse 3] Dragonflies tell it to the trees Butterflies hear it in the breeze They go tell it to the queen of the bees Now she knows [Verse 4] Ask the wizard or the wise old owl Or the badger though he's not in the crowd They don't know anyhow But I do [Refrain] I know and so does the swan He knows what's going on He won't tell you just as long As I'm here [Verse 5] The blackbirds talking in the trees Tell the seagull who flies the seas The sparrow hawk knows but then he sees Everything [Verse 6] Spider spinning his web of silk Watching the ducks down by the mill He'll keep the secret Until he's ready
