|
Once upon a time a girl with moonlight in her eyes
|
Put her hand in mine and said she loved me so
|
But that was once upon a time very long ago
|
|
Once upon a hill we sat beneath a willow tree
|
Counting all the stars and waiting for the dawn
|
But that was once upon a time, now the tree is gone
|
|
How the breeze ruffled through her hair
|
How we always laughed as though tomorrow wasn't there
|
We were young and didn't have a care
|
Where did it go?
|
|
Once upon a time the world was sweeter than we knew
|
Everything was ours, how happy we were then
|
But somehow once upon a time never comes again
|
|
[brief string interlude]
|
|
Once upon a time never comes again
