Once Upon A Time (You Were A Friend Of Mine) - Barry White

Have you ever had a situation, where…

Where you really wanted something real, real bad?

And as soon as you got it, you… you really didn’t know, what to…

What to do with it, how to… how to touch it, how to- how to treat it

Baby, that’s very similar to what I’m- to what I’m going through with you

Now that you’re here, I’m… I guess I’m so amazed with you here

That I find it hard for me to reach out, and touch you, and hold you,

and love you

Once upon a time, did you know, that you were a dream of mine?

All my life I’ve waited

For someone like you

Now you’re here

And I don’t know what to say, or do

I’m so afraid to wake up

And find it’s all a lie

I wish I could tell you why

You make me feel so shy

Once upon a time

You were a dream of mine

Wish I could tell you why

What do you say to an angel

Who suddenly appears?

In my dreams it was very, very clear

All that I remember

The way I felt, when I looked in your eyes

I wish I could tell you why

You make me feel so shy

Once upon a time

You were a dream of mine

Wish I could tell you why

Once upon a time

You were a dream of mine

Once upon a time

You were a dream of mine

Once upon a time

You were a dream of mine

Once upon a time

You were a dream of mine

Once upon a time…

Why can’t I tell you why

You make me feel so shy

Once upon a time

You were a dream of mine

Wish I could tell you why

You make me feel so shy

Once upon a time

You were a dream of mine

Of mine, of mine

Ooh why, why do I feel so shy?

Once upon a time

You were a dream of mine

Oh my

Why do I feel so shy?

Once upon a time

You were a dream of mine

I don’t know why

You make me feel so shy

Once upon a time

You were a dream of mine

Wish I could tell you why

You make me feel so shy

Once upon a time
