Once, I had a love so sweet, I remember
She'd follow me to the ends of the Earth and I'd let her
And every day was like a fairy tale
Cuts me up inside to think how I failed
I see now so well

She gave me everything she had for the better
Gave me the key to her soul and I let her
Once, I had a love so sweet, I remember
She'd follow me to the ends of the Earth and I let her

And every day was like a picture book
The look of love was in her eyes and how she'd look
But me, I just took, I just took

A fellow traveler with nothing planned
Save loving me the way I am
Expecting nothing in return
And I through her, I got to learn
Too late for me to see
I measured out my destiny
Too late for me to know
Where I lost her, I don't know

And every day was like a picture book
The look of love was in her eyes and how she'd look
But me, I just took, I just took
Once, I had a love so sweet, I remember
Follow me to the ends of the Earth and I let her
Once, I had a love so sweet, I remember
Follow me to the ends of the Earth and I let her
Yes, I let her, let her slip away, oh, yeah
Once, I had a love so sweet, I remember
Follow me to the ends of the Earth and I let her
