Once Upon a Me - Rachie

[00:28.000]If you have a minute, coould you sit a while with me
[00:33.000]This song comes off as happy but it’s kinda sad you see…
[00:37.000]The me in the mirror I looked at yesterday
[00:40.000]Though she wanted to change, somehow she looks the same today
[00:44.000]Been feelin' kind of blue, anxiety too, I’ve almost given up
[00:49.000]Since nobody will listen to the things I have to say
[00:53.000]It’s useless anyway, so I’ll bury my face in my knees
[00:58.000]One by one the tears they start to fall, does no one care at all?
[01:01.999]But just as I was gonna quit someone responded --
[01:05.998]“Don’t you know? No one will know what your he~art ho~lds
[01:08.998]So c’mon open up, I’m here to listen you know?”
[01:14.998]Heading towards tomorrow was the me of today
[01:18.998]Waving her hands like crazy saying “see you someday!”
[01:22.900]Behind, they’re yelling, telling me “keep doing your best”
[01:26.498]Although a pretty noisy chorus, I love them all to death
[01:29.998]And so I take off running never looking behind
[01:33.500]And as my tears reflect the evening glow
[01:37.000]I say my bye byes, to once upon a me of now and i go...
[01:42.000]If you have a minute, can you keep on sitting here with me?
[01:46.400]Now that I’m feeling better I won’t cry as much you see?
[01:50.500]Just watch my heart, a shining star, light up the sky
[01:56.000]Hey, did I hear you right just now?
[01:58.200]Been feelin' kind of blue? Anxiety too? Did you almost give up?
[02:03.299]If you think that no one will listen to the things you say
[02:07.899]I’m here for you okay?
[02:08.489]Cause we’re friends, don’t ever forget!
[02:12.599]One by one the tears they start to fall but now they’re falling down your face
[02:17.000]Tell me what’s been going on but know “It’s gonna be okay”
[02:20.449]Hey, now, whatever you do, don’t worry cause I’m here by your side
[02:26.000]There’s no need to cry
[02:29.500]Heading towards tomorrow was the you of today
[02:33.000]Waving your hands like crazy saying “see you someday!”
[02:36.699]Behind, they’re yelling, telling you “keep doing your best”
[02:40.500]Although a pretty noisy chorus, don’t you love them to death?
[02:44.000]And as you take off running, I could see it inside
[02:47.899]A heart that shines just like the evening glow
[02:51.000]So say your bye byes, to once upon a you of now and then go!
[02:58.000]
[03:21.299]Could you listen to me one last time before you leave?
[03:24.399]Back then the smallest thing could make me burst into tears
[03:29.000]But you, and you, were all there to
[03:32.500]Support me so I guess it’s time I do that too
[03:36.500]Was feelin' kind of blue, anxiety too, I’d almost given up
[03:39.899]But you’d pick me back up, and listen to the things I say, and come by every day
[03:47.199]Now to you, I want to do the same!
[03:50.500]One by one the tears are falling down, and in the sea they make you splash and flail around but there’s no way that I would let you drown!
[03:58.799]Casting a lifeline with rhythm and rhyme
[04:01.899]Telling you it’s alright, I hope I made it in time…
[04:10.500]Heading towards tomorrow with my hand here in yours
[04:14.889]Excited for tomorrow and what it has in store
[04:18.699]And from behind, they hug me, like they do everyday
[04:21.699]Followed by a noisy chorus I’ll keep loving the same
[04:25.598]And we can’t help but cry and give each other a smile
[04:29.699]That shined much brighter than the evening glow
[04:32.000]So I say bye bye, to once upon a me of now and I go
[04:38.500]
