Once Upon A Lifetime

In the style of

Alabama

Lyrics

once upon a lifetime
i looked in someone's eyes
and felt the fire burning in my heart
for the very first time
she was scared and young
and had never tasted love
so i took her by the hand
and a boy became a man
once upon a lifetime
and once upon a lifetime
you hold the queen of hearts
but if you gamble on a diamond
when the dealin' starts
you stand to lose it all
as the cards begin to fall
and the lesson learned is hard
you're only dealt the queen of hearts
once upon a lifetime
so if you're takin' chances
know the chance you take
a broken heart's a high price to pay
and foolish ways will make fools of the wise
and the best things
seldom come along twice
once upon a lifetime
you know that you've been blessed
when you hold your firstborn tenderly
against your chest
and through the innocence you see
the value of a family
and feel a special bond that only comes along
once upon a lifetime
so if you're takin' chances
know the chance you take
a broken heart's a high price to pay
and foolish ways will make fools of the wise
and the best things
seldom come along twice
and people only find
love like yours and mine
once upon a lifetime
