You were just a friend of mine and there were nothing more or less
behind in between the two of us, thus, I thought this will last forever
Why should we suppose to be a good guy, girl that we're pretending to be
But yes, I was afraid to say goodbye to the days we went as ever
Over thousands miles away from here
Just searching for the lights that guides us here
You were there for me, and I was there for you What else will you expect for love?
You've already knew, there's nothing so new in what we've gave from birthday
I am happy I hope you too, but yes, I am sad when you're not in the mood
This is the very place in a fairy tale begins from "Once upon a time"
By the way you're the one who told me to get lost and said,
"Please will you never to show up in front of me? Eternally"
I wished you didn't mean it but you never lied to me
We went over this again and again
but I feel something special when you call my name
So this is what love is all about
Who? What? When? Doesn't matter all it matter's is now or never
Over thousands reason you have searched
But to tell the truth, to love someone, I'm pretty sure that one will do
You were there for me, and I was there for you What else will you expect for love?
You've already knew, there's nothing so new in what we've gave from birthday
I am happy I hope you too, but yes, I am sad when you're not in the mood
This is the very place in a fairy tale begins from "Once upon a time"
理由なんて一つでいいんだよ
信じてみてもいいんだよ
思い出に浸る暇もないってくらい思い出作りたい
そしていつか読み返そう むかしむかしあるところに…
You were there for me, and I was there for you What else will you expect for love?

This is the very place in a fairy tale begins from "Once upon a time"
Now let's start our story with the line starts from "Once upon a time"
