Once Upon A Memory Lyrics - Dolly Parton

Once upon a memory 

I kissed lips as sweet as honey 

And lived in Heaven with an angel 

For a little while 

I knew love sweet and tender 

In a world of perfect splendor 

Once upon a memory 

Before he said goodbye 

Once upon a memory 

In Never-Neverland 

I had a love I know I'll 

Never ever have again 

A love like those 

You read in fairy tales 

Filled with joy and laughter

Oh, but he ended it 

And it broke my heart 

And I've cried forever-after 

Once upon a memory 

I knew love beyond compare 

Oh, then his sweet lips 

Lost their sweetness 

And all that Heaven in his eyes 

Turned into a cold and distant stare 

Gone is the love, sweet and tender 

A world of heartache knows no splendor 

Oh, but once, once upon a memory 

I knew love beyond compare 

Yes, once upon a memory 

In Never-Neverland 

I had a love I know I'll 

Never ever have again

A love like those 

You read in fairy tales 

Filled with joy and laughter 

But he ended it 

And it broke my heart 

And I've cried forever-after 

Oh, but once, once upon a memory 

I knew love beyond compare 

That was once upon a memory
