Once Upon A Time lyrics

Mother, I’m tired

Come surrender, my son

Time has ravaged on my soul

No plans to leave but still, I go

Fallin’ with the leaves

Fallin’ out of sleep

To the last goodbyes

Who cares why?

Mother, I’ve tried

Wasting my life

"I haven’t given up," I lie

To make you so proud in my eyes

Fallin’ out of sleep

Crawlin’ over me

To the last goodbyes

Who cares why?

Tuesday's come and gone

Restless, still, I drive

Try to leave it all behind

Fallin’ out of sleep

Fallin’ with the leaves

I go crawlin’ over me

Once upon a time in my life

Once upon a time in my life

Once upon a time in my life

Once upon a time in my life

I went falling

I went falling

Mother, I hope you know

That I miss you so

Time has ravaged on my soul

To wipe a mother's tears grown cold
