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 time
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 up 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

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
