Once I had a love so sweet, I remember -
She's follow me to the ends of the earth -
& I'd let her
And everyday was like a fairy tale
Cuts me up inside to think how I failed -
I see now so well
She gave me everything she had for the better
Gave me the key to her soul - & I let her
Once I had a love so sweet, I remember -
She'd follow me to the ends of the earth -
& I'd let her
And every day was like a picture book
The look of love was in her eyes -
& how she'd look -
But me, I just took
A fellow traveller with nothing planned
Save loving me the way I am
Expecting nothing in return -
Through her I got to learn
Too late for me to see - I measured out my destiny
Too late for me to know and where I lost her -
I don't know
Once I had a love so sweet, I remember
She'd follow me to the ends of the earth -
& I let her -
Yes I let her - let her slip away
