Once upon a time I swore I had a heart Long before the world I know tore it all apart, Once upon a time there was a part of me I shared Years before they took away the part of me that cared
I've been a thousand places And shook a million hands, I don't know where I'm going But I know just where I've been I've flown a million miles And I've rode so many more, Every day a castaway, A vagabond, battle born Battle born
Once upon a time I had an open point of view, That was just so long ago before I had a clue. Was there such a time where I didn't stand alone? Was there ever a time and how would I have known?
I've been a thousand places And shook a million hands, I don't know where I'm going But I know just where I've been I've flown a million miles And I've rode so many more, Every day a castaway, A vagabond, battle born Battle born [x3]
