Once Upon A Time Lyrics - Fogelberg Dan

Every morning you wake up alone 

And you shake up your soul 

But nothing stirs 

So you take the love of whoever 

you please 

But you can't find no reason 

For giving yours. 

'Cause, once upon a time 

You held a love so strong and fine 

That all the others simply don't compare 

She's always on your mind 

But once upon a time 

You had her there. 

Drive into town 'most every night 

On the chance that there might be someone 

Waiting for you 

You tell yourself you'll 

Give it your best 

Maybe settle for less 

But you never do. 

'Cause, once upon a time 

You held a love so strong and fine 

That all the others simply don't compare 

She's always on your mind 

But once upon a time 

You had her there. 

Every morning you wake up alone 

And you shake up your soul 

But nothing stirs 

So you take the love of whoever 

you please 

But you can't find no reason 

For giving yours. 

'Cause, once upon a time 

You held a love so strong and fine 

That all the others simply don't compare 

She's always on your mind 

But once upon a time 

You had her there.
