Dancing bears
Painted rings
Things I almost remember
And a song
Someone sings
Once upon a december

Someone holds me
save and warm
Horses prands
Through a silver storm
Figures dancing
gracefully
Across my memory
Far away long ago
Glowing dim as an ember(*)
Things my heart used to know
Once upon a december

Someone holds me
save and warm
Horses brands
Through a silver storm
Figures dancing
gracefully
Across my memory
Far away long ago
Glowing dim as in November
Things my heart
used to know
Things it yearns to remember
And a song
Someone sings
Once upon a december
