Once Upon a Time From the 1962 Broadway Musical, All American Music by Charles Strouse (b. 07 June 1928); Lyrics by Lee Adams (b. 14 Aug 1924) 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 a 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
