Lyrics:
Once upon another time
Somebody's hands who felt like mine
Turned the key and took a drive
Was free
Highway curve, the sun sank low
Buckley on the radio
Cigarette was burning slow
So breathe
Just yellow lines and tire marks
And sun-kissed skin and handle bars
And where I stood was where I was to be
No enemies to call my own
No porch light on to pull me home
And where I was is beautiful
Because I was free
Once upon another time
Before I knew which life was mine
Before I left the child behind me
I saw myself in summer nights
And stars lit up like candle light
I make my wish but mostly I believed...
In yellow lines and tire marks
Sun-kissed skin and handle bars
And where I stood was where I was to be
Once upon another time
Decided nothing good in dying
So I would just keep on driving
Because I was free
This woman is so incredibly underrated as a songwriter, a vocalist and a performer.
Nope, she's amazing and will be. Accolades are coming ;)
Do you hear that? It's her voice accompanied by almost no background music whatsoever. The quality of her voice speaks for itself, this is a solid testament of what a true singing artist is.
This in my "calm song" When the world's too busy, I'm too stressed or my head's too loud. I close my eyes & listen to this. It brings me peace.
Maire Emily me too !! 😢😢😢
Me too.
Me too!
Sammme 🧡
This is not a calm song. It’s a calm storm
For me, the essence of this song is in the line "Before I knew which life was mine." I can remember that feeling and that sense of freedom.
Netflix serie Lost Ollie brought me here. Such a magical voice and beautiful lyric which fits perfectly an also beautiful and touching serie . I feel lucky for having find this masterpiece!
Wow! I have never heard anything like this before. Very soulful, ethereal. It felt as if this music was rising from the depths of the ocean, coming to take me home.
are you high? though i also like this song.
Yes, I am blazing like a solar flare. Thanks for asking.
PinprickSociety
lolz im also high IM HIGH ON LIFE SUCKAS lolz :P
Not every singer can pull off that much a capella or humming with such a perfect sound.
This is the slowest I've ever fallen in love with a song; but I was hanging onto every word. Love that this is a capella for most of it, the dynamics are perfect and the placement of the chorus is lovely. This is definitely my new favourite song!
i agree.
Also agree, took me time but now i hear the beuty in this song. She is really special, and so amazing.
:)
totally
Try going through all of her songs... they’re all my favorite 😂
One of many underrated artists in the industry... Sara not only writes and sings beautifly but provides so much emotion with her voice that is almost impossible not to love her.
There is not enough time in the day to live all the lives we want to live. Thank you, Sara, for finding a way to express the emotions involved in choosing a path and the nostalgia of a time of freedom and infinite possibilities.
I was literally moved to tears by this song.
once maybe twice in a lifetime do you hear a voice like this.hauntingly beautiful.
I will never tire of her voice. I swear her music takes me to such a calm place.
This song is powerful, touching and could move you to tears. I see this like a dream where you're walking through memories slowly feeling you could almost touch them all leading to this one last moment where you find true bliss and endlessness. It's beautiful! I have fallen in love with this song and am in awe. Amazing job Sara. So glad I discovered your music and found this one looking for more.
Or true death..
Z. Andrews ggtdueferreyeudyryrres😘😇😳😉🙃😏🐹
B Feyerer Agreed?
right?
Z. Anders depends on the day...lol
I’ve cried so many tears to this song. This is the most beautiful song I’ve ever heard. I get chills every time.
Wow!...This is my first time hearing this song. Does anyone else think Sara is way underated??
cheryl eldridge she is both an incredible singer and song writer
1 MILLION PERCENT.
Oh she has a timeless sound. Cool think is... I think she is totally cool with herself and where she stands within the music industry ❤️
"no porchlight on to pull me home" ....KILLS ME
Dumb
Ben why.
The voice! Its sooo.. out of the world melodious. I don't think anyone could have pulled that 2 minutes and 40 seconds of vocals without a single beat of music. And i love the way she held the whole song together!
this isn't music, this is something else....
This is another one of those songs where I listen to it one sunny morning, and I close my eyes and meditate to the syllables and melody, not understanding a single word for I forget how the words are formed, and only the syllables exist in my ears, and I am put in a different world as my eyes are shut. And then the song ends, and I open my eyes, and the light in my room is changed from the dim rising sun through the window, and it now is aglow with a yellowy haze and the air itself is magic and it lifts into my lungs. And while I did not hear a word of the song and still its words are unbeknownst to me, I now see more than I did before without words.
❤❤❤❤❤
What a touching comment
Music truly crosses every border. This song used to calm me down during the revolution in my hometown. I used to hum this rhym to every baby in the family I babysat for and the would sleep so quickly. This song reminds me of home so much. I cant go back home after we fled the war. All I have now is memories bound to music that can never me forgotten ❤
This is probably one of the most beautiful things i have ever heard. Tragedy, relief, loss, self....Ugh this is speaking to my soul. Ive missed real music so much.
why is she so.....*sigh* I can't even finish....too beautiful.....
You're comment is me. Exactly me.
Surreal? I have to get our the thesaurus.... Unreal... and BEAUTIFUL
@@susiefrades-white3088 precisely
Sara is a storyteller when she sings. I love her so much. She makes you feel like she is on your side when you are having a hard time in life.
That's how I felt when I listened to Orpheus.
The song is pure poetry! I mean, it's just... stunning beautiful. And how many singers could be THIS compelling a cappella?!
She definitely underrated. But I am glad that she hasn't sold her soul the the MACHINE of hollywood. She's beautiful.
my camp counselor sang this every night to get all of us to sleep but no one went to sleep cause we wanted her to sing it
That must've been amazing. That's a perfect memory to associate with this nostalgic song.
I hate how people sleep on this and forgot about Sara😩♥️
I even love listening to her hum...
I would go so far as to say that her humming is one of my favourite parts, I've been lightly humming those few phrases for most of today and had to look it up to hear it again!!
In my opinion, that's the best part ...it brings back memories
That hum was enough for a Grammy.
I also..
Three years ago my best friend committed suicide, we had these dreams when we were in high school that after we'd be done and graduated with college we would move to L.A. Whenever I hear this song, it brings me to those days when we were full of hope.
I'm so sorry.
This probably doesn't count for much, but I'm so sorry for your loss..hang in there
Anthony Pero i KNOW that loss. im SORRY for urs
Anthony Pero I'm so sorry 😔
I do believe that your friend are still there, beside you, listening this song with you. So, be strong :(
i love the fact that there are many beautiful songs which are not popular, but people still know them, and listen to them! this is one of these!
Sara Bareilles has got the soul of someone that everyone falls in love with.
I love how at for the first 3 verses it is just her angelic voice, then a slow beat comes in and there are backing singers assisting her. it just makes this song so harrowing and pure brilliance
The backing singers are also Sara. George Michael did the same thing on They Won’t Go When I Go. Studio magic.
OMG JUST HEART WRENCHING!! brings me back to my childhood days...such a nostalgic feeling!!! I love uou Sara Bereilles!!!!! just freaking HEAVENLY!!!!
What a voice, Sara. No scooping, no affectation, just straight up power singing. It's a lost art among today's singers. I've always thought you had a wonderful voice since I first heard you on, of all things, One Tree Hill. I forgot to keep listening and am so glad I heard this song today for the first time. Brava!
Its not even 1 minute and I'm already in tears.
This song isn't even a song it's just something so majestic and pure and soulful I can't even exactly explain😭💜
Thats how I felt too. It pierced into depths of my soul. One word....(BLISS).
When she started singing tears rolled down my cheeks. She has so much power in her voice.
How is this song not in a movie!? Haunting opening to a sci-fi, gut wrenching reveal in a suspenseful drama, so much potential.
Well it's on lost ollie
Watch lost ollie,he have this song
Oh God, this is so beautiful my ears might burst into tears
Oh Sara Bareilles, why aren't you constantly at the top of the music charts? You have the ability to see what's in other's hearts and and give it words. Masterful song writer.
Singer, songwriter, instrumentalist, funny and I bet she can act too. She is a gift.
I cried.. i cried and I cried so much this song breaks my heart
It's bizarre that people find this soothing, this is, for all intents and purposes, a requiem, a bittersweet recollection of a past that is no more; it's just that, as the tragedy of coming to terms with the loss of our own past self unfolds, there isn't even a point in dying, so - according to the lyrics - we keep going until the caducity of life, inevitably, catches up to us.
But when you are old enough, a requiem can be relaxing. The song is VERY sad, but when you get to the point you where you look back, and ponder, and know there probably aren't many major decisions left to make, just play the cards you have
This has become my favorite song. Sarah Bareilles is truly just a wonder.
So glad to know there are other people out there that believe Sara Bareilles deserves so much more...and are in love with her music as much as I am =)
I played this song so much while I was pregnant, now my baby falls asleep to it while I hum along with it... so beautiful. Thank you Sara Bareilles 🥰🥰
May god bless anyone who is listening to this song and needs help. I know what you are going through. I lost my dad a year ago when he was killed by his girlfriend and drugs. Good god please help us out in these difficult times.❤️🙏🏻
mother of all that is holy i can't get rid of the goose bumps
Sara’s heartbreak inhabits every inch of this EP. 😓 Thank you Ben Folds for helping our dear, dear girl get back on track.
I am the kind of person that don’t say much. Live my life day by day, and not surprised on too much in this world these days. BUT!! This song cough my attention. Very surreal, calming and takes you back in the past -to that place where you were the most tranquil. I would love to see a video made to this song. GOOD JOB SARA!!
Is it even POSSIBLE to make a video to this????
We're playing this song for the ballad in our marching band show, and it is beautiful.
Heard this for the first time because of Lost Ollie, beautiful 💗
Perfect song for the Netflix Ollie thank you.
When I was younger (maybe 12-17) I would listen to this song as a lullaby to help me sleep. I've suffered from pretty bad depression and anxiety for most of my life due to childhood trauma, and this song has been an anchor in the storm for me. I used to sing it on repeat for hours.
I wish you are OK
It's not your fault
@@김진만-e4w thank you ❤️
This is pure art.
I need this to be played when I die.
same. i have decided that this should be my funeral song
@@mcborreo it's the perfect song.
This might just be the best song I've ever heard
At 3:27 I was pretty much crying my face off. So incredibly beautiful. Thank you for making the world a more beautiful place with your music.
Sara's talent is so rare... I really respect her for keeping her style. :)
This song makes me stop doing anything and just lay back to listen to the details.
I love the fact that you can hear the quiet popping of a candle burning in the beginning..
wow. unlike anything I've ever heard. simply stripped down and stunning. thank you, Sara
She is a master of the stripped down, the authentic. I would travel far to see her in concert, but she isn't on tour this year. Sigh.
Is the stripped down a musical technique?
I am so addicted to this song, it's ridiculous how many times I've replayed and belted this song.
I cry anytime I listen to this song. My emotion is still the same as the first time I known this song in my 20th. Now I’m in my 30th.
Same
I cried when this song played in "Lost Ollie". Highly recommend if you didn't watch
thanks a lot, I will@@gandalfczarny2289
This makes me feel sad and heart warmed
This sounds like a sort of anthem, so lovely.
This song sounds beautiful with rainy moods in the background.
This song makes me melt into a pool of calmness. I love it.
I love the candle thing. It makes an already beautiful song impossibly more meaningful.
I can't believe I didn't know this song! It's precious, THANK you Sara.
This song can make you feel happy, when you're sad. There's so much happiness in this song.
It may sound weird, but I literally forget to breath at moments during this song. It happens everytime I listen to it. It is amazing.
Sara sometimes I can not find the words to express my thanks having a friend like you who spreads more joy to people with the music you create and sing. Then all the rich people with there money. An when your heart is happy and people see you smile it warms there hearts as well. For it is a lovely vision one that money could never buy. May you always find the good in life then the bad.
This song is a masterpiece.
This song has saved my life more times than I can count but I fear even Sara won’t be enough one day 😢
Damn.... Listening to this song. It feels like she took me to another world
I don't know why, I have tears every time I hear this..
This song is simply beautiful. There's something about it that just makes you pause and truly listen.
I think this is the most beautiful song I ever heard... I'm in awe
Sara, thank you for being yourself. Your music and voice and attitude is to die for, and that makes you out of my league so terribly, which is good. :) All of us can never ever ever thank you enough!!! You're as awesome as some being out of this planet because I can't think of anyone more awesome than you in your ways. You are of THE best in music right now... You've touched my heart and held my hand through your music. Your song "Brave" made me brave enough to perform the song with my good friend and I told everyone in my school about my sexuality struggles. All thanks to you. Just a while ago I was just extremely confused, talking with my dad and trying to figure the situation... I listened to your album and when I hit "Satellite Call" I held out my hands and I felt very broken down and raw and I could visualize you holding them, letting me know it's okay. and now I'll listen to this so that I can sleep like a baby... It's 1:12 am dangit. x) Thank you for healing our scars and giving us hope and knowledge at the same time. If everyone could tell you how awesome you are and how then there would always be someone talking to you. Maybe it's good that you'll probably never read this, because of... everything. You're too awesome. we're lucky to have someone like you in this world. YOU ARE FUCKIING AMAZINGGG!!!
GOOD LUCK FOREVER!!!
+ (positivity)
what he said !!!!! :)
I am with Sara - she read this and thanks you profusely...
Joe Pacini (I hate to tell you this but if this is a prank its too late. Jaw-dropping. 1)&;#+36 :- 9$?@)8)Really?! Could you tell her Merry Christmas??? Oh, and to you too dude. Merry Christmas!!! Thank you so so much, I would have never imagined I would have been able to reach my message across Sara, much less in less than another five years. Fuck. As a fan I would so bombard you with a bunch of questions, but as a person maybe if I work hard enough and feed my Blessed Unrest I'll be able to just ask the amazing Sara a few questions... like about how she got to where she is today or how she manages to sing so amazingly. Or something. :D oh boy. Thank you, Joe. This is the best Christmas present ever. Good luck in life, you two!!! I hope the power of music is empowering you and Sara to be your best self as it has helped me. I cant even thank you all enough. I'll probably make a song about it to express my gratitude. THANK. YOU. x )))

Sara Bareilles is my love of all loves. I am making all of her playlists that I created for myself public for the first time on December 25, 2014. I love that woman more than my own life. Any undercover CIA - FBI agent that messes with her will be slaughtered like the pigs that they are regardless of whether or not they falsely believe they cannot be convicted in a court of law. I am from Calabria Italy and in my world Men take care of their families first. Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior took the fall for all of humanity. He is our Man among men. He is my role model alone. I answer to Jesus Christ alone and to Sara Beth Bareilles. I took the fall for Sara and myself to keep her safe. I am making these statement public because the FBI is planning my assassination as I write these words. I may not be alive too much longer.
Please review my channel..
Her humming alone in the beginning gives me chills...in a good way
absolutely beautiful.Makes me crave another time when everythonf was better and happier. makes tears come to my eyes and makes my heart ache for a tine when trouble didnt haunt my soul. Sara, you amaze me.
This song is beautiful. And I'm glad she knows that her voice is so amazing that she doesn't even need any music.
I don't know what I would do without this song. It is so relaxing. I can go from stressed to happy in a second after listening to it.
BEAUTIFUL - the music, the lyrics, the singer, all. BEAUTIFUL.
It kinda sounds like autumn leaves. it feels like the melody wants to revolve around a circle of fourth chord progression.
Klaod Nell both songs I love very much.
I almost feel there’s a classic Disney element in the song. Something very Cinderella-ish or Sleeping Beauty (with the humming for the most part).

I feel like I'm swimming all the time, drowning when my feet are too tired to keep paddling and my arms are weak and numb. I always think back to my childhood when running miles was no problem at all, when ice cream for breakfast, lunch, and dinner was the biggest treat and the best thing that could ever happen. When my mother took care of everything and my father taught me to live pridefully. This song just takes me back to those times and I feel like I can float and breathe. It's so beautiful.
This song helps so much I've listened to it so many times recently I lost my house to hurricane Harvey we have nothing to go back to and then I knew I have the voice of an angel to listen to crying is about the only thing I can do for now I love you thanks for the song it really helps
I know this happened almost a year ago but I’m so sorry you had to go through that!! I can’t imagine what losing your home must’ve felt like 😢 Hope you’re safe and sound now!
STUNNING!!! I just put it on repeat and I never do that!! the simplicity and the lullaby quality of this song is ASTOUNDING!
Hauntingly beautiful
oh my word! I caught this melody floating over the airwaves on our radio at work. I was transfixed by it's simplicity, and its exquisite melody. I waited by the radio to find out who was singing it, had to stop work. I'm so glad I didn't miss the chance to find out.. I'm an instant fan! thank you Sara for making this.
this is breathtaking
amazing...to hear a whole orchestra only through her voice... i mean in the beginning .
I hate choosing favourites because they change but I think it's safe to say this my favourite Sara Bareilles song. The EP is so stunning, raw and mature.
Her voice is outstanding in this song. I love the beginning as well where it sounds like a vinyl record as well. Beautiful. Hoping to see a music video for it.
Played this to my niece, she fell asleep within minutes. Shows how beautiful and soothing this song is
Just beautiful
If I could sing like this, I probably would never stop...I try now, but it's not too pleasant :).
Boris true
I wonder...Does she sing in the shower just to hear herself :)))
i'm not sure why, but i'm pretty sure i've cried every time i've listened to this.. i guess i get reminded of my childhood (and i'm only a college freshman). it was such an easy life back then.. i wish life would slow down every once in a while so people can appreciate the simple things, like what Sara sings about, again.
This is pure art
Beautiful
OMG!!!! I HAD NEVER HEARD THIS SONG BEFOREEEE!!! SUCH A MASTER PIECE....AMAZING!
