Once i had a love, so sweet - i remember
She'd follow me to the ends of the earth
????and i'd let her
And everyday was like a fairy tale
Cuts me up inside to think how i failed
????i see now so well
She gave me everything she had for the better
Gave me the key to her soul - and i let her
Once i had a love, so sweet - i remember
She'd follow me to the ends of the earth
????and i let her
And every day was like a picture book
The look of love was in her eyes -
And how she'd look - but me, i just took
A fellow traveler with nothing planned
Save loving me the way i am
Expecting nothing in return -
And i through her i got to learn
Too late for me to see
I measured out my destiny
Too late for me to know
And where i lost her - i don't know
Once i had a love, so sweet - i remember
She'd follow me to the ends of the earth
Yes i let her - i let her slip away
