Dancing bears 
Painted wings 
Things I almost remember 
And a song someone sings 
Once upon a december 

Someone holds me safe and warm 
Horses prance through a silver storm 
Figures dancing gracefully 
Across my memory 

Far away, long ago 
Glowing dim as an ember 
Things my heart 
Used to know 
Once upon a december 

Someone holds me safe and warm 
Horses prance through a silver storm 
Figures dancing gracefully 
Across my memory 

Far away, long ago 
Glowing dim an as ember 
Things my heart 
Used to know 
Things it yearns to remember 

And a song 
Someone sings 
Once upon a december
