twice upon a time

once upon a time there were two hearts

on a road to happy ever after

and the story goes that the real world

snug up and stole their sunlight and their laughter

they stood there in the dark and trying to see

that's the way i picture you and me

sometimes love's no fairy tale

matches made in heaven sometimes fail

well

we know love's so hard to find

should we give up on us and leave it all behind

or rewrite this story twice upon a time?

we could start at chapter ten

see those hearts again

finding all the clouds have silver linings

and we're sure by chapter twelve all the stars that fell

are back up in the sky and brightly shining

the choice is ours

the pen's still in our hands

we can right the wrong or we can write the end

sometimes love's no fairy tale

matches made in heaven sometimes fail

well

we know love's so hard to find

should we give up on us and leave it all behind

or rewrite this story twice upon a time?

if there's ever gonna be a happy ending

first there's got to be a new beginning

sometimes love's no fairy tale

matches made in heaven sometimes fail

well

we know love's so hard to find

should we give up on us and leave it all behind

or rewrite this story twice upon a time?

don't give up on us and leave it all behind

we could write this story twice upon a time
