Once upon a time a girl with moonlight in her eyesPut her hand in mine and said she loved me so;
But that was once upon a time, very long ago.[Bm7-5]
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 [Bm7-5]now the tree is gone.
Bridge:
[Bm7-5]How the breeze r[Bm7-5]uffled through her hair;
How we always laughed as though tomorrow wasn’t there.
We were young and [Bm7-5]didn’t have a care
Where did it [Bm7-5]go?
Once upon a time the world was sweeter than we knew,
Ev’rything was ours how happy we were then!
But somehow once upon a time
[Bm7-5]Never comes a – gain.
