Once upon a time, somewhere in the back of my mind

I fell in love with you

But then, everything went wrong, I couldn't even write a song

There was nothing to look forward to



I don't go out very much, I'm always home on my own

Baby I was just too blind to see

I wasn't to conquer the world but the world had a mind of its own

Maybe I tried a little too hard

Maybe I pushed you away too far



Gotta room in your heart for a lonely heart

Gotta room in your heart for two

It might be nice-living in a heart with you



So sing and all the world will shine, somewhere in this nursery rhyme

A happy ending lies-for all the lovers with the lonely eyes

Easy come-easy go-this is just to let you know

Baby I apologize



How could I turn away love, how could I turn into stone

How could I turn my back on you

I wanted to be a success but success ever leaves you alone

Maybe I tried a little too hard

Maybe I pushed you way too far
