[00:11.30]Once upon a time I was on my own
[00:16.86]Once upon a time like you've never known
[00:22.17]Once upon a time I would be impressed
[00:27.79]Once upon a time my life would be obsessed
[00:33.48]Once upon a time, once upon a day when
[00:39.27]I was in my prime, once along the way
[00:44.36]If you want to know my secret don't come runnin' after me
[00:50.02]For I am just a painter passing through in history
[00:56.32]
[01:01.03]Yesterday is gone, yesterday's alright
[01:05.87]Yesterday belongs in my dreams at night
[01:11.24]Yesterday is swell, yesterday is great
[01:16.79]Yesterday is strong, remembering can wait
[01:22.62]Once upon a time, once upon a day when
[01:28.91]I was in my prime, once along the way
[01:34.36]
[01:34.97]If you want to know an answer I can't turn your life around
[01:40.28]For I am just a painter passing through the underground
[01:45.35]
[01:50.60]I was in my stride, always at my game
[01:55.57]Here comes mister cool, along the walk of fame
[02:00.91]I was in demand, always in control
[02:06.49]The world was in my hands, my touch had turn to gold
[02:12.05]Once upon a time, I was in a daze when
[02:18.54]I was in my prime, once along the way
[02:23.26]
[02:24.06]If you want to know my secret don't come runnin' after me
[02:28.96]For I am just a painter passing through in history
[02:34.14]
[02:39.78]Now that I am old, let me rest a spell
[02:44.61]All that I am told, I can never tell
[02:49.96]Never in my life, never will it pass
[02:55.55]I am still alone, remembering at last
[03:01.20]Once upon a time, once upon a day when
[03:07.68]I was in my prime, once along the way
[03:12.64]
[03:12.96]If you want to know an answer I can't turn your life around
[03:18.12]For I am just a painter passing through the underground
[03:23.65]
[03:24.26]If you want to know my secret don't come runnin' after me
[03:29.18]For I am just a painter passing through in history
[03:34.93]
