Every morning you wake up alone
Fm G F
And you shake up your soul, but nothing stirs
C Fm C
So you take the love of whoever you please
Fm G
But you can't find no reason for giving yours
CHORUS:
F
'Cause once upon a time
Em
You held a love, so strong and fine
F Ab C
That all the others simply don't compare
F
She's always on your mind

But once upon a time you had her there

On the chance that there might be someone waiting for you

You tell yourself, you'll give it your best
Fm G
Maybe settle for less, but you never do
CHORUS:

'Cause once upon a time

You held a love, so strong and fine

She's always on your mind

But once upon a time you had her there
