Once Upon A Time

 

 

Oh, the winter winds are blowing

It won’t be long before there’s snow

And I have no way of knowing

Down which road I should go

Would it be too much to ask you

Is your sweet love still mine?

‘Cause I used to have it once upon a time

 

And the swallows, they are leaving

‘Cause they have no need for cold

And I have a sense of grieving

For the year has grown old

I could turn and face the winter

If your sweet love was still mine

‘Cause I used to have it once upon a time

 

Through the flesh, to the bone so cold

Through the heart right down to the soul

At the end of the road all you’ve got left is you

 

Now the tears have overflowed the pale

That’s beyond you and I

There’s one thing in life that will always prevail

What was born must surely die

Will the tight locked door that holds your love

Ever let me back inside?

‘Cause I used to have it once upon a time

Yeah, I used to have it once upon a time

 

Through the flesh, to the bone so cold

Through the heart right down to the soul

At the end of the road all you’ve got left is you
