Once upon a time I was on my own

Once upon a time like you've never known

Once upon a time I would be impressed

Once upon a time my life would be obsessed



Once upon a time, once upon a day

When I was in my prime, once along the way

If you want to know my secret don't come runnin' after me

For I am just a painter passing through in history



Yesterday is gone, yesterday's alright

Yesterday belongs in my dreams at night

Yesterday is swell, yesterday is great

Yesterday is strong, remembering can wait



Once upon a time, once upon a day

When I was in my prime, once along the way

If you want to know an answer I can't turn your life around

For I am just a painter passing through the underground



I was in my stride, always at my game

Here comes mister cool along the walk of fame

I was in demand, always in control

The world was in my hands, my touch had turn to gold



Once upon a time, I was in a daze

When I was in my prime, once along the way

If you want to know my secret don't come runnin after me

For I am just a painter passing through in history



Now that I am old, let me rest a spell

All that I am told, I can never tell

Never in my life, never will it pass

I am still alone, remembering at last



Once upon a time, once upon a day

When I was in my prime, once along the way

If you want to know an answer I can't turn your life around

For I am just a painter passing through the underground

If you want to know my secret don't come runnin after me

For I am just a painter passing through in history
