Cover art for Once lyrics by Glen Hansard & Markéta Irglová

well i think this song is about a relationship that has ended.it was like the most amazing of relationships but it eventually just disenegrated and know theyre not even in contact.thay feel like they dont know each other anymore.before everything was amazing and one wouldve given up their life for the other but things change as do people and their feelings towards others.
