Once Upon A Time by Raf Bernardino Lyrics

The fire’s been put out for sure, not a spark remains
Drowned out by cold and harsh December rain

What once was safety, security, and my serendipity
Now just a flicker of a distant memory

I’ve lost you for good, with no chance for goodbye
But I’m thankful I could say
That once upon a time
You were mine

My feelings, they never surfaced until they haunted me in bed
I couldn’t tell what I felt when everything came crashing in
Even after all you’ve done to keep me away
In the end, I found no reason to treat you with disdain

I’ve lost you for good, with no chance for goodbye
But I’m thankful I could say
That once upon a time
You were mine
People don’t know what they have ’til they’ve lost it in the end
I didn’t know I was ever loved until you left
Though all I can do after all is watch from a distance
I’ll hope you’re happy, and I wish you all the best

I’ve lost you for good, with no chance for goodbye
But I’m thankful I could say
That once upon a time, you were mine
I’ve lost you for good, with no chance for reprise
But I’m thankful I could say
That once upon a time
That once upon a time
That once upon a time
You were mine
