Lyrics:

(C. Strouse, L. Adams)
[recorded April 14, 1965, Hollywood]

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

[brief String Interlude]

once Upon A Time Never Comes Again
