"Once Upon A Time" lyrics

"Once Upon A Time"

Once upon a time
When flowers grew on fields
We used to see so much diversity
The skies above our heads
Were always blue and stretched
The woods held secrets for you and me

The hours full of joy
There was no care at all
The running of the sand
Through the hourglass in hand

Each day of many days
We plod along life's road
But rarely we know our course
We toil like men at war
Is that what's now in store?
All the sorrow of the long ago

The longing for the joy
Without any care at all
The footprints on the sand
Where time and space expands

The sea complaints
Upon a thousand shores
So many froths ago
I walked along these coasts

From the cradle to the grave
Our dreams will never fade
From the cradle to the grave
Our dreams will never fade

Will never fade
Will never fade

Our longing for the joy
Without any care at all
Among the throes and the woes
We'd see if anything goes

From the cradle to the grave
From the cradle to the grave
