Once Upon a Time
Once upon a time, I was falling in love with you
My heart in your hands at the end of the avenue
Batting my eyes, tryna play it all cool
But you could see through all of that
When I was 16, life seemed an endless stream
Of romance and chance and movie star, beauty queens
I tried my best to mold into their extremes
I never fit the part
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Once upon a time, life was an open road
Rear-view mirror, another sold-out show
Always someplace new to go, but they all blend into one
All I could see was all that it couldn't be
Felt so bad to be thankless and naïve
A hotel room with a beautiful view
It didn't matter to me
If there was no you
If there was no you
Maybe, when I'm older, I can put it all to rest
So afraid of growing bitter
Like, what the hell did I expect?
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Once upon a time, I was falling in love with you
My heart in your hands at the end of the avenue
Batting my eyes, tryna play it all cool
But you could see through all of that
My heart in your hands at the end of the avenue
Batting my eyes, tryna play it all cool
But you could see through all of that
When I was 16, life seemed an endless stream
Of romance and chance and movie star, beauty queens
I tried my best to mold into their extremes
I never fit the part
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Once upon a time, life was an open road
Rear-view mirror, another sold-out show
Always someplace new to go, but they all blend into one
All I could see was all that it couldn't be
Felt so bad to be thankless and naïve
A hotel room with a beautiful view
It didn't matter to me
If there was no you
If there was no you
Maybe, when I'm older, I can put it all to rest
So afraid of growing bitter
Like, what the hell did I expect?
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
While the world burns
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Once upon a time, I was falling in love with you
My heart in your hands at the end of the avenue
Batting my eyes, tryna play it all cool
But you could see through all of that
