Once upon a time and long ago
I heard someone singing soft and low
Now when day is done and night is near
I recall this song I used to hear
My child my very own, don't be afraid, you're not alone
Sleep until the dawn, for all is well
Long ago this song was sung to me
Now it's just a distant melody
Somewhere from the past I used to know
Once upon a time and long ago
Somewhere from the past I used to know
Once upon a time and long ago
