Simple Minds - Once Upon A Time lyrics

And you

Yes you speak to me tonight

And you say so, say so

That once upon a time

When love, love was a white dove

And hope, long live hope, could spin the whole world 'round

I'm talking east to west

I'm talking lost and found

Get up to the mountain top

I'm going to drop unto the ground

That's once upon a time

You raise me up when I know you're around

But God only knows, what God only knows

You lift me up and you spin me around

God only knows, but God only knows

That's time

Time looked around herself

Time got excited

That's when we all got started

Still I hear you, yes still you speak to me tonight

You say then how come out of love, is all this cruelty arising?

Well I said, look, well will you look at you, you're frightened

I see that you smile through weariness

But there is not much else enlightened

Well, that's a question down to time

You life me up when I know you're around

God only knows, God only knows

Still you raise me up when I know you're around

God only knows, God only knows

That's time
