composing love songs in my head
to tunes of memories unsaid
and these words are for the first time
written down.

i never thought it'd happen to me
i'm not the sort to fall head over feet
but you threw my world off kilter.
everything's so strange

and my heart is pounding rythms
in my never-silent mind
as the image of your smile
dances before my eyes

and for this moment,
this once upon a time,
i feel like i belong to you
and you are mine.

walking slowly in the rain
trying to ignore the pain
of two fragile hearts
now in shreds.

somehow together we couldn't go on
our lives have met their second dawn
and will we know what will come next?
everything's so strange.

my life is trodding trails
that were beaten long before
by other lonely souls
left to dance across the floor.

and for that moment,
that once upon a time,
i felt like i belonged to you
and you were mine.

happy endings arent for me
leave them to fairy tales
and take back all your
empty lies.

you know i'll always love you
no matter what will come
but what happens next
is your choice.

and never more
no more once upon a time
i still belong to you
but...you aren't mine.
