Once, I woke

Once apon a time ago, I was alone.
When I woke in the night,
There were only the ghosts to see,
From sorrows dreams.

Once apon a time ago, I was afraid.
When I woke in the night,
I faced the shadows that came,
From sorrows heart.

Once apon a time ago, I believed.
When I woke in the night,
I searched for the light,
That would bring the truth.

Once apon a time ago, I dreamed.
When I woke in the night,
That I walked a dark path,
That would never end.

Once not long ago, I woke.
And found you holding the truth,
Sharing the light forever,
In my night.
