[Emma Swan]

There's this feeling

That I've had since before I remember

A memory that glows like an ember

Of a place or a time and a home

I almost see it, so close that I could be it

It calls to me

Something from my past

Something missing

Like a purpose at last

It's a hope inside

Even though I've tried to run away from it

There's nowhere to hide

[Snow White]

There's a story

Of a maiden who lies in a forest

Waiting asleep

[Prince Charming]

And a hero

With a promise to keep

And a vow I'd always find you

At last, it's all behind you

[Snow White]

We'll set things right

[Prince Charming]

No more wars to fight

[Snow White & Prince Charming]

A happy ending

As our kingdoms unite

[Snow White]

With our hearts as one

[Prince Charming]

Our new life begun

[Snow White & Prince Charming]

In a future that's as bright as the sun

[Emma Swan]

So I'll close my eyes

And dream of places I've been to in my mind

[Snow White]

Where the story ends with love

[Snow White & Prince Charming]

And broken dreams are left behind

[Emma Swan]

I made a choice to hear my voice

A story that is mine

[Snow White & Prince Charming]

Even through the darkness

I will make my way to find

[Emma Swan]

My once upon a time

[Evil Queen]

There's a story

Of a life that was changed by a child

Broken and torn and defiled

Stolen happy ending

So fragile I could break it

So close that I could take it

I've paid my price

Made my sacrifice

Left with nothing

But your pain will suffice

So I'll tip the scale

And rewrite the tale

With a twist where only I will prevail

[Captain Hook]

There's a story

Of a love that was stolen by vengeance

By jealousy's rage

[Rumplestiltskin]

And a villain

Left to rot in a cage

[Captain Hook]

A coward using magic

[Rumplestiltskin]

A life cut short, how tragic

[Evil Queen]

I will make her pay

[Captain Hook]

He will curse the day

[Captain Hook & Evil Queen]

That he robbed me / That she robbed me

Took my future away

[Evil Queen]

Now the time has come

Now the wait is done

[Rumplestiltskin]

It's a journey that we've only begun

[Captain Hook]

So I'll chart a course and sail for places

That I have yet to find

[Evil Queen]

A place where the only happy endings will be mine

[Captain Hook]

To leave behind a life confined

[Rumplestiltskin]

By love and loss intertwined

[Evil Queen]

Only in the darkness can you change your fate defined

By once upon a time

[Snow White]

A choice that we make

[Prince Charming]

A curse we will break

[Evil Queen]

Robbed of their memories

Without an escape

[Rumplestiltskin]

A line that's been drawn

[Captain Hook]

To rewrite a wrong

[Emma Swan]

I know there's a place somewhere that I belong

When I close my eyes I dream of places

That I have yet to find

[Evil Queen]

A place where the only happy endings will be mine

[Captain Hook]

I made a vow

[Rumplestiltskin]

What happens now

[Snow White & Prince Charming]

Our story changed somehow

[Evil Queen & Captain Hook & Rumplestiltskin]

Only in the darkness can you leave your life defined

[Snow White & Prince Charming]

Even through the darkness

I will make my way to find

[Emma Swan]

My once upon a time
