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 the 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!
