Sara Bareilles Once Upon Another Time Lyrics

(Verse)
Once upon another time
Somebody's hands who felt like mine
Turned a key and took a drive
Was free
I recall the sun sank low
Buckley on the radio
Cigarette was burning slow
So breathe

(Chorus)
Just yellow lines, and tire marks
And sun-kissed skin and handle bars
And where I stood, was where I was
To be

(Verse)
No enemies to call my own
No porch light on to pull me home
And where I was is beautiful
Because I was free
(Verse)
Once upon another time
Before I knew which life was mine
Before I left the child behind, me
I saw myself in summer nights
And stars lit up like candle lights
I make my wish but mostly, I believed

(Chorus)
In yellow lines and tire marks
sun-kissed skin and handle bars
And where I stood, was where I was
To be

(Outro)
Once upon another time
Decided nothing good in dying
So I would just keep on driving
Because I was free
