Once Upon A Time

Once upon a time
There was this thing called love
No one knew what it was
Or what it even does

For some lonely people
This once upon a time
Is with them every day
And never goes away

They still dream of what love is
They still dream of what it does
They dream that just once
They could feel what love does

Those dreams will stay dreams
Forever buried in their heads
Never to surface in the world outside
Never ever to be shared

I know how those few feel
After all I'm one too
I dream of what might be
Knowing it will stay a dream

What does this world?
Really hold for me
Honestly and truthfully
Nothing, as far as I can see

So I'll live my lonely life
Trying to stay out of sight
You may see me out at night
Under the moon and stars at night

My once upon a time
Will always stay the same
The start of a fairy tale
That's never going to be
