Tony Bennett Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time a girl with moonlight in her eyes Put her hand in mine and said she loved me so But that was once upon a time, very long ago Once upon a time we sat beneath a willow tree Counting all the stars and waiting for the dawn But that was once upon a time, now the tree is gone How the breeze ruffled up her hair How we always laughed as though tomorrow wasn't there We were young and didn't have a care Where did it go? Once upon a time the world was sweeter than we knew Everything was ours, how happy we were then But somehow once upon a time never comes again
