Harry Belafonte — Once Was

Once was a woman Once was a dream Once lived in heaven it seemed Wondering oh wondering I lost it Gone is the feeling I had Gone is the woman and gone is the dream Gone is the heaven that seemed Gone is the other Gone is the touch Gone is the rapture of all Wondering o wondering I lost it All that once burned is now cold Gone are the ones who deserved it Gone is thе story once told Gone is the feeling Gonе is the time Time of a rapture sublime Wondering o wondering I lost it How to recapture the time Gone is the love and the place now Gone are the things I believed Gone is the love and the place now Gone are the things I believed
