Trace Adkins - Once Upon a Fool Ago lyrics

It's the hour of ghosts

I'm the soul survivor

You keep pushing me

To pull another all-nighter

Watching on these walls

Memory silhouettes

All the tender times

All the old regrets

And I wish I could take back our last goodbye

Knowing what I know now about foolish pride

I'd hold you in my loving arms

And say I love you so

And I wouldn't start this story

Once upon a fool ago

It's the same routine

Ever since you've gone

You creep into my dreams

Won't leave me alone

So I haunt these halls

And I rattle my chains

And I moan about

What I can't change

And I wish I could take back our last goodbye

Knowing what I know now about foolish pride

I'd hold you in my loving arms

And say I love you so

And I wouldn't start this story

Once upon a fool ago

It's the hour of the ghosts

I'm the soul survivor

You keep pushing me

To pull another all-nighter

And I wish I could take back our last goodbye

Knowing what I know now about foolish pride

I'd hold you in my loving arms

And say I love you so

And I wouldn't start this story

Once upon a fool ago

No, I wouldn't start this story

Once upon a fool ago.
