This Nearly Was Mine

One dream in my heart,
 One love to be living for,
 One love to be living for,
 This nearly was mine.
 One girl for my dream,
 One partner in paradise,
 This promise of paradise
 This nearly was mine.
 Close to my heart she came
 Only to fly away,
 Only to fly as day flies from moonlight
 ♪
 Now, now I'm alone,
 Still dreaming of paradise,
 Still saying that paradise
 Once nearly was mine.
 ♪
 I'll keep remembering kisses
 From lips I've never owned,
 And all the lovely adventures
 That we have never known.
