'Once Upon A Time' © Words, music and melody by © Rosanella di Costanzo.
One upon a time we were children and now we've grown up.
One upon a time we knew nothing but now we know more [or so we think]
Believing we've changed but we've only grown into what we've always been [just more so].
We've got stories to tell
of broken hearts and broken dreams
We've got stories to tell
of broken hearts and broken dreams
successes and abscesses from decades gone by
[the time gone by].
As i sing my songs
pictures of long distant memories
that look like dresses inside my closet that did not fill at all
[they ought to be thrown].
Just look at those shoes
why did I wear them anyway [let me throw them away].
I just wanna throw away yesterday.
Oh today is a new day
welcome the new sunshine in.
I know this child inside is here to stay.
So let us walk hand in hand
and fill the present with new sweet memories.
So let us walk hand in hand
and fill the present with new sweet memories.
