Gonna paint a picture Gonna put it in a frame So I can show you how I'm feelin' Without having to explain And you can hang it from your ceiling In your safe and happy home When you come to understand it You'll know you're not alone
Once upon a time We could speak our minds
(chorus) But now I don't believe you gwendolyn I don't believe you're all that strong I don't believe you know the dangers Of this road you're travelin' on You're always asking questions That you know the answers to Tell me please What do you want from me
Gonna write a song Gonna tell it like it is And if you recognize yourself I know you're going to be pissed And if you call me on it I'll deny it through and through Just like woody allen would If he were in my shoes
Once upon a time I could speak my mind
(chorus)
Gonna write a letter Gonna mail it to myself Sincerely and forever You and yours can go to hell Well, then I'll put it in my pocket So when this all comes crashing down I'll have a way to show you How long I've been wearing down. Once upon a time We could speak our minds (chorus 2x)
