Once Upon a Memory

Once upon a memory

I kissed lips as sweet as honey

And lived in Heaven with an angel

For a little while

I knew love sweet and tender

In a world of perfect splendor

Once upon a memory

Before he said goodbye

Once upon a memory

In Never-Neverland

I had a love I know I'll

Never ever have again

A love like those

You read in fairy tales

Filled with joy and laughter

Oh, but he ended it

And it broke my heart

And I've cried forever-after

(Once upon a memory

I knew love beyond compare)

Oh, then his sweet lips

Lost their sweetness

And all that Heaven in his eyes

Turned into a cold and distant stare

Gone is the love, sweet and tender

A world of heartache knows no splendor

Oh, but once, once upon a memory

I knew love beyond compare

Yes, once upon a memory

In Never-Neverland

I had a love I know I'll

Never ever have again

A love like those

You read in fairy tales

Filled with joy and laughter

But he ended it

And it broke my heart

And I've cried forever-after

Oh, but once, once upon a memory

I knew love beyond compare

That was once upon a memory
