Artist/Band: Joe Derise
Lyrics for Song: Once I Believed
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Joe Derise



Once I believed



Lyrics: john h. burns



Verse:



I took for granted the simplest joys of life.

Smiles always came after tears.

Day after day, year into year

All those pleasures I knew

Are no longer true

For



Chorus:



Once I believed that with april came spring

And the songs a young lover would sing.

Well, here it is april

But there's no sign of spring.



Why was I fooled by the old standard rule

That with roses there must be perfume.

Well, here are the roses

But there is no perfume.



Like the leaves that kiss the trees goodbye

To grace the fallen snow

Foolish I kissed my heart good bye.

And like the leaves if find the snow is cold.



Once I believed that no sad songs I'd sing.

Now the goddess of love's had her fling.

She took away my love

And left no sign of spring.
