Once upon a time we lost ourselves in Quincy
played at several playgrounds
and lost a hat of yours
but neither of us cared then
Once upon a time we took a walk together
ended up at the shore
sat along the wall there
shared a secret love kiss
Once upon a time we held hands waiting backstage
nervous and excited
sharing the energy
and it was so comforting
Once upon a time we went to see Shakespeare
sat and watched the whole thing
marveled at the acting
held hands as we walked back
Once upon a time I visited the hospital
sat along your bedside
talked for many hours
because the time just flew by
Once upon a time we climbed a tall tree and
you held my hand in yours
and we looked down through the glass
it felt like we were flying
Once upon a time drove over to Lancaster
sang through a whole CD
laughing at the irony
not caring how we sounded
Once upon a time we kicked a little pebble
turned it into a game
tried to keep it safe and
soaked up all the silliness
Once upon a time we tried to bake cinnamon rolls
couldn't even open them
had to bring out a knife
but they tasted so good
Once upon a time we sang a song together
voices mixing magically
harmonizing wonderfully
we said we'd do it again
