…Once there was a love.
Deeper than any ocean
Once there was a love
filled…
…with such a devotion.
It was yours and mine.
To hold and cherish
and to keep for a life time.
Then you wen't away
on the lonely day
Once there was a love
Now I don't know how I can go…
…on
Some how I feel so all alone.
Wondering where I've gone wrong.
Once there was a love
that will never come again
So let's not pretend.
Once there was a love
But that was long a go.
…Once there was a time I'd rob my mama
For a good meal and a smoke
Once there was a time I'd sell my brother
For a dollar when I…
…be strumming on some angels harp
And if I don't get to heaven
And I go down there below
Better be a guitar when I get there
Or, I will refuse to go
Once there was a…

Once there was a time we cried
Never settle on a nine to five
But now if you lead we will follow
Once there was a…
…and the cause
Comes through loud and clear so we'll all
Join the leader, help the leader
Once there was a time we moaned
Oh Lord bring our…

Once there was a way to get back homeward
Once there was a way to get back home
Sleep pretty darling, do…
…not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
[Hook]
Once there was a way to get back homeward
Once there was a way to get back home
Sleep pretty darling, do not cry
And I will sing a lullaby…
…Once there was a time
I had a heart, but that
Was once upon a time
Once your love was mine
I used to wake up…
…away from me...
Yes, once there was a time
I had to watch something
I prayed I'd never see
The girl I loved, so slowly
Walk away from…
You've looked around
And found, you're all alone
You think you can come
Crawling home to me...
And once there was a time
I'd have…
…for the weary soul
The life giving word that no one knows
Once there was a sun above, the only law we knew was love
Once there was a…
…moon to glow, once there was a way to know
Once there was a sun above, the only law we knew was love
Once there was a moon to glow, once there was a way to know
Once there was a sun above…
…!
Once there was a way to get back homeward
Once there was a way to get back home
Sleep pretty darling do…
…not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
Once there was a way to get back homeward
Once there was a way to get back home
Sleep pretty darling do…
…not cry
And I will sing a lullaby
Boy, you're gonna carry that weight
Carry that weight a long time
Boy...

Once there was a…

And once there was a time to join the army
And once there was a time to hear the news
And once there was a…
…in a prayer of liars' words
The hounds are on your scent, you must move swiftly
Their spies just tellin' lies of what they heard
And once there was a time to join the army
And once there was a…
…time to hear the news
And once there was a time for easy silence…
…Once there was a nation here
Now there is no more
Once we fought to change our fears
But now this is our war (This is our war…
…the compassion in the world today?
Yeah, we're all the same
Until we find another way
This is our war (This is our war)
Once there was a nation here
Now…
This is our war (This is our war)
Once there was a nation here
Now there is no more (This is our war)
Once we fought for change arm…
