[Verse 1]
Once there was a love
She was an angel sometimes
Sometimes she was the devil in white
It was always a big surprise
Once there was a love
She lived so far away
I would always count down the days
Till I'd see her from face to face
[Chorus]
It isn't hard to get what you want
But do you know what it is you want
I believe that's the harder part
It isn't hard to get what you want
But do you know what you really want
That to me is the hardest part
[Verse 2]
Once there was a love
We would spend Sundays in the park
When she'd smile it would light up my heart
And I would just forget everything
Once there was a love
We had a long history
It would take years before we were free
Of the ties to each other's hearts
[Chorus]
It isn't hard to get what you want
But do you know what it is you want
I believe that's the harder part
It isn't hard to get what you want
But do you know what you really want
That to me is the harder part
