Once Upon A Time

(álbum: Gentleman Jim - 1963)

Once upon a time life was lovely
I never found time to complain
Once upon a time blue skies were mine
But now it's beginning to rain.

I'm so unprepared for the weather
Although there's a storm in my heart
I'll just ignore the weather pretend we're together
And linger alone in the dark.

I've always been told the rainbow
Usually follows the rain
But there's no glow of a rainbow
No sign of sunshine again.

I'll just let the clouds cast their shadows
And hide that old moon from my view
Because if it finds me it only reminds me
Of once upon a time with you.

Once upon a time life was lovely
I never found time to complain
Once upon a time blue skies were mine
But now it's beginning to rain.

I'll just let the clouds cast their shadows
And hide that old moon from my view
Because if it finds me it only reminds me
Of once upon a time with you...
