Because of Once Upon a Time - Fats Waller

Once upon a time

You whispered 'I love you'

And once upon a time I thought it so

You held in your arms

Said you’d never let me go

You lyin' dog, get away from here!

Once upon a time

You kissed me, remember?

One upon a time I didn’t know

A kiss could do such harm

Never thought t’would hurt me so, woah.

Many, many times I’ve dreamed of the past

A dream that never came true

Oh so many time… how long will it last?

How long will it last, dreaming of you?

Once upon a time,

Can that mean forever?

Ah, you know I know you cost me mine

Oh, you’re always in my heart

Because of Once upon a time

Oh once upon a time

Can that mean forever?

You know I know you cost me mine

Oh, you’re always in my heart

Because of Once upon a time

Because of Once upon a time
