ONCE UPON A TIME

ONCE UPON A TIME

Hace mucho que no escuchaba esta vieja canción, no recuerdo cuando fue la primera vez que la oí, pero desde que lo hice me enamore de ella, me encanta su nostálgica letra que inevitablemente logra evocarme mejores tiempos ya pasados. Curiosamente, hoy que me siento nostálgicamente triste, la vuelvo escuchar para hacerme sentir feliz.

Once upon a time,
A girl with moonlight in her eyes,
Put her hand in mine,
And said she loved me so . . .
But that was once upon a time,
Very long ago!

Once upon a hill,
we sat beneath the willow tree,
Counting all the stars,
And waiting for the dawn,
But that was once upon a time,
Now, the tree is gone!

How the breeze ruffled through her hair,
How we always laughed,
As though tomorrow wasn’t there . . .
We were young,
And didn’t have a care,
Where did it go?

Once upon a time,
The world was sweeter than we knew,
Everything was ours,
How happy we were then . . .
But, somehow, once upon a time,
Never comes again!
