Marty Robbins - Not So Long Ago lyrics
[Marty Robbins - Not So Long Ago lyrics]
I was young and acted foolishly
Broke her heart, caused us to part
Once upon a time
Unconcerned, I let her slip away
In my sorrow, now I curse the day
I broke her heart, caused us to part
Once upon a time
Once upon a time, I must confess
In my reach was complete happiness
Didn't know that I was really livin'
Once upon a time
Now another kisses her goodnight
She was mine, and would be mine tonight
If I'd only done a little givin'
Once upon a time
Once upon a time
I laughed, the night, she said
This is the end
Made her cry in front of all her friends
Acted smart, and broke her heart
Once upon a time
I remember what I told the crowd
Let her go, I even yelled it loud
I talked a lot, and lost a lot
Once upon a time
Gone forever, never to return
Is the love that once so brightly burned
I remember once upon a time
How much I used to brag
Like so many little grains of sand
I let her slip through my foolish hands
And before I knew it, love had turned
From riches back to rags
Once upon a time she was my love
