Once Upon A Day - Mechanical Poet

In the middle of the night

Just let yourself awake

Step to a windowpane

See how the willows dance around the lake

Take a minute to get dressed

Then sneak across the floor

Now turn your Walkman on

Put on the phones and fly outside the door

MAGIC HOUR HAS ARRIVED

TAKE YOU PAINS AWAY

FAIRYTALE COMES IN YOU LIFE

JUST AS YOU WISHED IT ONCE UPON A DAY

Run across a clover meadow

Wet your face with dew

Ride with the fairies down the empty lanes

And see your dreams come true

Let your heart be free as much

As you might ever need

Wait 'till the morning rays sweep down the stars

And wake the sleepy streets

Remember how they called you nuts

Remember how you stood the grief

How many tears you cried

What pain you felt but still tried to believe

Remember how your heart was bleeding

While you smiled

But you still didn’t stop believing

You just couldn’t give it up…
