Once Upon a Time mp3

A picture book
Weighed on her chest
Danced on her eyes
What she liked
Best was to read
Between the lines

Cursive words
Gently confirm
A future of bliss
She's disturbed
It's never spelled out
What that future is

And should you say goodbye
Then once upon a time
Would start our storied lives
That I always knew too good to be true

Remember when
We met and you said
What's that in your hair
That was all
It took to convince
Me we were a pair

What made you
Think the same thing
I couldn't guess
I'm still surprised
Somewhere inside
Each time you say yes

And should you say goodbye
Then once upon a time
Would start our storied lives
That I always knew too good to be true

Now descends
The armored night
To put us to sleep
When I wake
Up to your kiss
I'll start to dream

And should you say goodbye
Then once upon a time
Would start our storied lives
That I always knew too good to be true
And should you say goodbye
Then once upon a time
Would start our storied lives
That I always knew too good to be true
(early July 2004)
