Lyrics for 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
