原声碟

Once upon a dream

Once upon a dream
I was lost in love's embrace
There I found a perfect place
Once upon a dream

Once there was a time
Like no other time before
Hope was still an open door
Once upon a dream

And I was unafraid
The dream was so exciting
But now I see it fade
And I am here alone

Once upon a dream
You were heaven-sent to me
But it wasn't meant to be
Now you're just a dream

Could we begin again
Once upon a dream
