Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time, there was a girl and boy;

She was shy, he was sweet, they were friends.

He taught her how to juggle,

She admired his perfectly feathered hair…

It was a fairy tale right from the start!

Chorus:

They got together and made a life;

They held each other’s hands,

Taking turns leading up steep hills,

And laughing as they danced under starry skies!

There were bumps along the way,

But there were rainbows too,

And glorious vistas to behold.

As the years passed by, their friendship did grow,

Liking him, loving her, more than friends.

Could you love me, like I love you? 

Will you share my life? Yes I will!

It was a fairy tale right from the start! (chorus)

Bridge:

This is where it all began,

Loving each other pulled them through.

And they learned along the way -

The journey together is the jewel! (chorus)

Once upon a time, there was a girl and boy;

She was shy, he was sweet, they were friends!

Could you love me, like I love you? 

Will you share my life? Yes I will!

It was a fairy tale right from the start!
