Once upon a time
  there was a girl
  who lived in the land
  of dreams unreal
  hiding from reality
  treated like a stranger
  living in her fantasies
  trapped within their world
  
  Once upon a time
  her hopes had died
  no one there to hear
  her futile cries
  living in a house of stone
  no one on her side
  family in name alone
  no place left to hide
  Aah!
  
  Once upon a time
  once upon a time
  once upon a time
  once upon a time
  
  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
  aah!
