Once Upon a Time by Donna Summer Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Once upon a time
There was a girl
Who lived in the land
Of dreams unreal
Hiding from reality
Treated like a stranger
Living in her fantasies
Trapped within their world

[Verse 2]
Once upon a time
Her hopes had died
No one there to hear
Her futile cries
Living in a house of stone
No one on her side
Family in name alone
No place left to hide

[Instrumental Break]
[Refrain]
Once upon a time
Once upon a time, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Once upon a time
Once upon a time, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Once upon a dream
A man will come
And give her everything
She wants and loves
But in the morning she'll awake
To face the room around her
It's just another lonely day
And bitterness surrounds her
Bitterness surrounds her
