There Once Was A Girl

There once was a girl
Young and sweet
Full of life and melody
Gorgeous like a pearl
Never missed a beat
A deity she was so heavenly
There once was a girl
There once was a girl
Her name was Selene
Her name meaning brightness
A light like the moon
There once was a girl
There once was a girl
The bravest I have known
Kept her head high
Whatever the situation might be
She didn't need no throne
Cause she was the sky
Peaceful like the sea
There once was a girl
There once was a girl
Caught in this mess
When she belonged in the heaven
She was the blessing that
All wanted to possess
But they got their lesson
As she was the wildcat
There once was a girl
There once was a girl
Her name was Selene
Her name meaning brightness
A light like the moon
There once was a girl
There once was a girl
None stayed true
She lost too many
But kept going ahead
Cause life is only blue
And too long is the journey
But now she rests on her deathbed
There once was a girl 
There once was a girl
She was the light
She was the beacon
She was my mom
She was my only sight
She was unbeaten
She was the bomb
She was Selene
She was my mother
There once was a girl
Full of joy and merry
A blue moon
In this world of darkness
She was Selene
She was my mother
There once was a girl
There once was a girl
Her name was Selene
Her name meaning brightness
A light like the moon
There once was a girl
There once was a girl
