Lyrics

Once upon a time, I can still remember,
Like a fairy tale, the first time we danced.
I think I knew as I held you that night
that I would love you for the rest of my life.
You were nearly mine that once upon a time.
Instead of my heart you listened to your mind.
What I missed I guess I’ll never know,
That’s the way that it goes.
Other men may love you, give you anything you want,
All I gave you was my heart.
Other men may hold you, give you silver and gold,
But I, I gave you my soul.
Honey, when I stop and reminisce,
it’s funny, I still recall the way we kissed.
You never knew how much I wanted this.
That’s the way that it goes.
Other men may love you ......
Baby, I don’t know what to do,
It’s crazy, I’m still not over you.
But life’s a river, too long I’ve watched it flow.
That’s the way that it goes.
Life’s a river, you’ve sailed away, I know.
That’s just the way that it goes.
