Once Upon a Time

[Verse 1]

Once upon a time

There was a girl

Who lived in the land

Of dreams unreal

Hiding from reality

Treated like a stranger

Living in her fantasies

Trapped within their world

[Verse 2]

Once upon a time

Her hopes had died

No one there to hear

Her futile cries

Living in a house of stone

No one on her side

Family in name alone

No place left to hide

[Instrumental Break]

[Refrain]

Once upon a time

Once upon a time, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Once upon a time

Once upon a time, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]

Once upon a dream

A man will come

And give her everything

She wants and loves

But in the morning she'll awake

To face the room around her

It's just another lonely day

And bitterness surrounds her

Bitterness surrounds her
