lyrics

Once, once upon a dream
Forever it did seem
You and me
Now, I’m staring at the sky
I’ve cried a thousand times
Forever you and I

I cannot figure out
I dunno what about
I’m always with you now
But I cannot let go
Let go, let go
I cannot figure out
I dunno what about
I’m always with you now
But I cannot let go
Let go, let go

La, lalala lala, lalala lala, lala la
La, lalala lala, lalala lala, lala la

You were always telling me to
Put a smile on
You just couldn’t be around
And I was always telling you to
Get a move on
I just wanted you around

La, lalala lala, lalala lala, lala la

Just three hours drive away
All the things I forgot to say
But you’re not listening
If I could fit in the envelope
I would send myself to you
With all the pictures that I drew

But they were for two
Like you, like you
Yeah they were for two
Like you, like you

Once, once upon a dream
Forever it did seem
You and me
Now, I’m staring at the sky
I’ve cried a thousand times
Forever you and I

And now I’ve figured out
Just what it’s all about
I’m never with you now
But I cannot let go

Let go, let go
Let go, let go, let go
Let go
