Once Lyrics


Once upon a time

There was a child, a rover, a date

Grazing all the winds

Dancing for the stars

A minuet they will gaze as I turn

Like a spinning top

“No more difference between

Future and my past”

But I lost the path I’ve been

And eternity’s too short

[solo: C]

Trusting to the swan

Not aware what the beauty may hide

Honesty’s a dream

Hangmen satisfied

One day or another they’ll be

Catapulting me

Poisoned apple offered me

Bandaged eyes that see

Screams of child, discovered life

Eyes damp of true loyalty

Constellation cries

There was a child living in free words

My sweet lullaby

May morrow bring whatever you should tell

…Everyone (once) has been a child but

Few of them can still remember…

…I must bear some caterpillar

If I want to meet the butterflies…

[solos: C/M, C, M]

Will I always run with pride?

None shall stop me now!

Must rebind the book of life

Longin’ for the day we’ll soar

Constellation cries

There was a child living in free words

My sweet lullaby

May morrow bring whatever you should tell
