Once Upon a Time

Once upon a time
I first held your hand and love was not a crime
In a private world where you said
'Don't look down and then I did
And now you're lost above me

So much left to say
Trapped alone here with my best laid plans astray
Standing scared outside a cold church
Soul search
Seeking some lost answer from a good who loves me

Can I turn to you in my need?
Will you take me back or watch me bleed?
Are you there? There at all
And as I fall from the person that I tried to be
Could you really love someone like me?

Once upon a time
All I need was his hand in mine
And we knew it all
But now I know not what to do
I bow my head and turn to you
