In classic fashion We begin our tale With once upon a time Once upon a time The scene Could’ve been anywhere Let’s say in early spring And for characters, only two But like any good cast We have our share of ghosts Our characters, I’ll choose fitting names We’ll call them the Princess and Hero Princess and the Hero Friends could be lovers If circumstances were different Princess sits on the edge of her bed Haunted by our Hero, now retired Our late Hero And Hero, miles away Sits on a barstool thinking about the past Call it misinformation Call it paths not taken Or just cal it poor timing Hero, I say hero But he’s really just a boy without a clue A traveling musician Ready for the road Looking for inspiration Our brave Hero And Princess, an ordinary girl Walks a path others have chosen for her She searches for courage to walk her own path She knows she wants so much more Once upon a time Once there was a time Every good story must have a twist of fate Circumstances do change Circumstantial evidence And Hero is at her doorstep Friends could be lovers Maybe, once upon a time
