This Nearly Was Mine

This Nearly Was Mine - The Ray Conniff Singers

Written by：Richard Rodgers/Oscar Hammerstein II

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

Now now I'm alone still dreaming of paradise

Still saying that paradise once nearly was mine

This nearly was

This nearly was

This nearly was mine
