Once Upon a Time
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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.
