Once Upon A Time - The Pogues

The hour＇s late and the lights are low

I＇m walking home just kicking stones

I waited at the depot you never showed

You missed the last bus hours ago

I remember the first time

I saw you on the street

You looked so pretty my heart skipped a beat

I can＇t wait any longer but I still feel the heat

I＇m down but I＇m still on my feet

I walked on down the old fairground

Up from the docks blew a lonely sound

I sat for a while on the cold hard ground

Watched the stars slowly turn as the earth spun around

As the past falls behind up ahead there＇s a crack

Of light shining bright through the night so black

Like a runaway train rolling down the track

From here there＇s no turning back

Listen to me baby

Once upon a time

My heart was an ocean

You swam against the tide

The time is past for grieving

My tears have all run dry

I＇ll leave you with my love

And now I say goodbye

The bottles broke the glasses are cracked

The cards are all dealt and the chips have been stacked

The lamp shades busted and the curtains are torn

The door keeps knocking but there＇s nobody home

I stood by the road brushed a tear from my eye

Cursed the cars and the rain and the rolling grey sky

I turned around turned my back on that town

And I never looked back again

Listen to me baby

Once upon a time

My heart was an ocean

You swam against the tide

The time is past for grieving

My tears have all run dry

I＇ll leave you with my love

And now I say goodbye

Listen to me baby

Once upon a time

My heart was an ocean

You swam against the tide

The time is past for grieving

My tears have all run dry

I＇ll leave you with my love

And now I say goodbye
