Lyrics:

This is a special song for you shorty
'Cause I think you forgot how we started out
And I’m about to take you way back
To our once upon a time
Once upon a time, oh
Yeah
Once upon a time
Do you remember how we used to look at each other?
Once upon a time
Talk to each other, psh I remember

Now it seems to me
You’re living in a dream world, fantasy
In love with a nigga that can never be
What I can be
'Ya think ya ballin’ now
But do you recall?
Us bus riding, window shopping at the mall
We were broke as a nigga but we had it all
We had it all
I’m here to remind you of our

Once upon a time, oh
Once upon a time
Once upon a time, say
Once upon a time
Oh say
I remember when
Once upon a time, oh
You came into my life
Once upon a time
Making love all night
Once upon a time, oh
Once upon a time
As time goes on

Now we made some dough
But separate not together
Like we planned it all
Somehow it all became what is mine’s is mine
What’s yours is yours
What the hell were we thinking?
If I could read your mind
I’d reach into your heart and soul
To try to find the love that was missing
Left so far behind, so far behind
I’m here to remind you of our

Once upon a time, oh
Once upon a time
Once upon a time, say
Once upon a time
Oh say
I remember when
Once upon a time, oh
You came into my life
Once upon a time
Making love all night
Once upon a time, oh
Once upon a time
As time goes on

Take it to the bridge now
Oh, oh, oh
Once upon a time
Hold on, hold on baby
And do you remember
Running up your mama’s phone bill baby
Didn’t wanna hang up for nothing
And it’s a quarter to three
Kept on talking for hours
'Till we both fell asleep

Once upon a time, oh
Just think about it, think about it
Once upon a time
Whoa
Once upon a time, oh
I’m gon take you back right now
To the bus pass days
Now do you remember?
Once upon a time
Standing on the bus stop with me baby
Once upon a time, oh
We had no fancy cars and no diamond ring
Once upon a time
No credit cards, no bling, bling
