Once upon a time there were two hearts
On a road to happy ever after
And the story goes that the real world
Snug up and stole their sunlight and their laughter

They stood there in the dark and trying to see
That's the way I picture you and me

Sometimes love's no fairy tale
Matches made in Heaven sometimes fail
Well, we know love's so hard to find
Should we give up on us and leave it all behind
Or rewrite this story twice upon a time?

We could start at chapter ten, see those hearts again
Finding all the clouds have silver linings
And we're sure by chapter twelve all the stars that fell
Are back up in the sky and brightly shining

The choice is ours, the pen's still in our hands
We can right the wrong or we can write the end

Sometimes love's no fairy tale
Matches made in Heaven sometimes fail
Well, we know love's so hard to find
Should we give up on us and leave it all behind
Or rewrite this story twice upon a time?

If there's ever gonna be a happy ending
First there's got to be a new beginning

Sometimes love's no fairy tale
Matches made in Heaven sometimes fail
Well, we know love's so hard to find
Should we give up on us and leave it all behind
Or rewrite this story twice upon a time?

Don't give up on us and leave it all behind
We could write this story twice upon a time, twice upon a time
