Upon a Time
Once upon a time i knew what it was to love someone so deep i couldn't see the world
around me. Once upon a time
i was afraid. Afraid of losing you, Afraid of keeping you too.
Once upon a time you promised me it was always me. Now you won't say a word.
Once upon a time i felt safe, and comforted.
It was than that i felt alive when i was near you.
Now i'm always alone.
Once upon a time, a time so long gone away you told me you loved me, and now you throw me
away.
Once upon a time you used me all up, wound me in frustration and broke my heart.
I remember when it was forever,
now we;re just growing old together.
one time long ago i made you a promise, a promise i etched in gold
and when you need me i'll be here, i am a woman of my word
and i swear, i'll just sit and look at you when your lonely, and scared.
