‘The end’ never seemed like it was good enough
Two little words seemed too small
I turned the page to find a blank one
As if the ones before never really happened at all

But what about the love, what about the old obsessions
We fell into when they were new
What about the late at night, heartfelt confessions
The things we tried, the tears we cried
Well it seemed to have a way

I got one more part for the story book
One more road that I should’ve took
One more thing that used to have my heart
I got one more place in my memory
When I wished that they were part of me
I got to go back, go back to the start

I know it’s too far down and much too high to climb
But why can’t we bring it on back
To once upon a time

Here we are, standing at the finish line
And I swear, it’s like we came a million miles
And if I take one more step, I will forget the rivers we crossed
And how we ended will be lost if we say goodbye

But what about the way our faith wasn’t fiction
It was real to you, it was real to me
So what about this love [bad word] (?)
We were never sure of what we were
But we knew we/it? could never be
 [bad word] 

But what about the way our faith wasn’t fiction
It was real to you, it was real to me
So what about the ups and down, and all the misses
The things we learned, the stones we turned
Well that bridge has burned away

And now it’s just one more part for the story book
One more road that I should’ve took
One more thing that used to have my heart

Yeah I know it’s too far down and much too high to climb
Oh I just wish we could bring it on back
To that once upon a time

(na na na’s / audience interaction)

Back to the start, back to your heart
To that once upon a time
Back to the start, back to your heart
To that once upon a time

I know it’s too far down and much too high to climb
I just wish we could bring it on back
To that once upon a time
