Once upon a time there was a girl
Who lived in a land of dreams unreal
Hiding from reality
Treated like a stranger
Living in her fantasies
Trapped within their world
Once upon a time, once upon a time, her hopes, her hopes had died, had died
No one there to hear, no one there to hear her futile, her futile cries, cries
Living in a house of stone
No one on her side
A family in name alone
No place left to hide
Once upon a time, once upon a time (×2)
Once upon a dream a man will come
And give her everything she wants and loves
But in the morning she'll awake
To face the room around her
It's just another lonely day
And bitterness surrounds her
Bitterness surrounds her
