Once upon a time there was a witch and three drops and a magic bard
Once upon a time there was a bridge and a hammer and a guardian god
You may say that it's too late to believe in stories that passed away
I say this is the time to bring those stories back to life
Oh, may you never forget your dreams
May you always fulfill every little wish
That you had once when you were a kid
Once upon a time there was a cat with two livers and a taste for wine
Once upon a time there was a duck and a maiden and a pretty swan
You may say that it's too late to believe in stories that passed away
I say this is the time to bring those stories back to life
Oh, may you never forget your dreams
May you always fulfill every little wish
That you had once when you were a kid
Once upon a time there was a prince made of gold and kissing stars
Once upon a time there was a tear and a mirror and a dancing sun
You may say that it's too late to believe in stories that passed away
I say this is the time to light those stories in our hearts
Oh, may you never forget your dreams
May you always fulfill every little wish
That you had once when you were a kid

ÉRASE UNA VEZ
Érase una vez una bruja y tres gotas y un bardo mágico
Érase una vez un puente y un martillo y un dios guardián
Tal vez digas que es demasiado tarde para creer en las historias que ya pasaron
Yo digo que ahora es el momento de traer de nuevo esas historias a la vida
Oh, ojalá nunca olvides tus sueños
Ojalá cumplas siempre cada pequeño deseo que tuviste una vez de niño
Érase una vez un gato con dos hígados y gusto por el vino
Érase una vez un pato y una doncella y un bonito cisne
Tal vez digas que es demasiado tarde para creer en las historias que ya pasaron
Yo digo que ahora es el momento de traer de nuevo esas historias a la vida
Oh, ojalá nunca olvides tus sueños
Ojalá cumplas siempre cada pequeño deseo que tuviste una vez de niño
Érase una vez un príncipe hecho de oro y de estrellas que besan
Érase una vez una lágrima y un espejo y un sol danzante
Tal vez digas que es demasiado tarde para creer en las historias que ya pasaron
Yo digo que ahora es el momento de encender esas historias en nuestros corazones
Oh, ojalá nunca olvides tus sueños
Ojalá cumplas siempre cada pequeño deseo que tuviste una vez de niño
