Lyrics
ONCE UPON A TIME
BY: TERRY E CALDWELL
02/24/03
ONCE UPON A TIME, ONCE UPON A TIME, I WISHED YOU WERE MINE.
WHEN WE WERE IN HIGH SCHOOL, YOU USED TO BE MY GIRL
WHAT HAPPENED TO THOSE TIMES.
EVERYTHING WAS PEACHY, WE USED TO WALK THE SANDY BEACHES.
YOU USED TO BE MINE.
CHORUS: ONCE UPON A TIME, ONCE UPON A TIME, I WISHED YOU WERE MINE. ONCE UPON A TIME, ONCE UPON A TIME, YOU WERE MINE.
AFTER COLLEGE WE BOTH GOT MORE KNOWLEDGE. YOU BECAME A LAWYER AS I DID A SOLDIER.
THE LETTERS BECOME LESS FRQUENT, AS I EXPECTED OUR HEARTS TO BECOME MORE FONDER. ONLY TO RECEIVE YOUR DEAR JOHN.
NOW THE TIME HAS PASSED, AND I QUIT LOOKING BACK, ONCE UPON A TIME YOU WERE MINE.
HOPEFULLY YOU HAVE FILLED YOUR DREAMS AS I HAVE MINE.
ONCE UPON A TIME, YOU COULD HAVE BEEN MINE......
