It's always once upon a time in New York City
Where a boy leaves all he knows and loves
To join the eternal fight for freedom and justice
He says his last good-byes, and flies a million miles away from home
To a land of strangers and stranger customs
Here is where he sleeps, but his heart longs for home

It's always once upon a time in the streets of Hawaii
Where a girl plays the games of love and heartache
Who has learned to hurt, before being hurt
She flirts, and she says she'll always stay
One night of pleasure, for her lifetime of pain
This is her game, her territory, but she longs for a true love

It’s always once upon a time in the world of love
Where a boy so far from home, and a girl unwilling to trust
Can meet one day, and fall in love
"First we try, then we trust" she hears one day at the movies
"Home is where the heart is" the boy knows
So the girl finds her love, and the boy finds home
It's always Once Upon A Time
I just wanna say one thing, cuz I don't want you to think this is about my husband. This is about a man... more like a boy, whom I thought maybe one day I could love. But he hurt me, typical guy move I suppose. As much as I may want to change the state to my husband's state, I know that in my heart, it just would not be the same and therefore, this poem would have no meaning.
