This Nearly Was Mine Lyrics - Perry Como

One dream in my heart 

One love to be living for 

One love to be living for 

This nearly was mine 

One girl for my dreams 

One partner in paradise 

This promise of paradise 

This nearly was mine 

Close to my heart she came 

Only to fly away 

Only to fly as day 

Flies from moonlight 

Now now I'm alone 

Still dreaming of paradise 

Still sayin' that paradise 

Once nearly was mine 

Only to fly as day 

Flies from moonlight 

Now now I'm alone 

Still dreaming of paradise 

Still sayin' that paradise 

Once nearly was mine
