Once Upon A Memory Lyrics

(Dolly Parton)
Once upon a memory I kissed lips as sweet as honey And lived in Heaven with an angel For a little while I knew love sweet and tender In a world of perfect splendor Once upon a memory Before he said goodbye
Once upon a memory In Never-Neverland I had a love I know I'll Never ever have again
A love like those You read in fairy tales Filled with joy and laughter
Oh, but he ended it And it broke my heart And I've cried forever-after
Once upon a memory I knew love beyond compare [ From: http://www.metrolyrics.com/once-upon-a-memory-lyrics-dolly-parton.html ]
Oh, then his sweet lips Lost their sweetness And all that Heaven in his eyes Turned into a cold and distant stare
Gone is the love, sweet and tender A world of heartache knows no splendor Oh, but once, once upon a memory I knew love beyond compare
Yes, once upon a memory In Never-Neverland I had a love I know I'll Never ever have again
A love like those You read in fairy tales Filled with joy and laughter But he ended it And it broke my heart And I've cried forever-after
Oh, but once, once upon a memory I knew love beyond compare That was once upon a memory
