Electric Light Orchestra Ii - Once Upon A Time lyrics

Meeting you in the park and talking in the pouring rain (Oh what a time we had) Running home in the dark and pretending it was all a game (Oh what a time) Those were the days, those were the days Memories of you have really left a scar And all that I can do now is to love you from afar 'Cos everything was fine That once upon a time Asking you if you'd stay, not believing that you might (Oh what a time we had) Missing you through the day, dreaming of you through the night (Oh what a time) Those were the days, those were the days Though there's no denying that you're nowhere around I can't help myself from looking for your face amongst the crowd 'Cos everything was fine, that once upon a time Have to leave the past behind me and get on the right track Though there's nothing I can say that will ever bring you back But everything was fine, that once upon a time I wish I knew for how much longer this misery will last Can't control these feelings, I'm still living in the past 'Cos everything was fine, that once upon a time I've got to build my life again, try to find somebody new But I know inside my heart of hearts there'll be no replacing you But everything was fine, that once upon a time
