Once In My Life

way back in my life, when i was nothing but a child, stood just where you are and looked around, felt that i could walk on higher ground, but time drifted by, years i ran from phase to phase, somehow i forgot what i was then, somehow i forgot to care, for once in my life, i'll get it right, always before, i let it all go, once in my life, won't turn around, 'cause i know that i'll be strong, for once in my life, way back in my mind, thought i'd make it on my own, the wonders of the world were there for me, but dreams they fade and die, when a man can't keep his soul alive, so when i saw your face beyond the wall, i knew i nearly lost it all, for once in my life, i'll get it right, always before, i let it all go, once in my life, won't turn around, 'cause i know that i'll be strong, for once in my life, and the tears roll down, roll down my face, till i've cried for the human race, let love be my last temptation, let love be my great creation, for once in my life, i'll get it right, always before, i let it all go, once in my life, won't turn around, 'cause i know that i'll be strong, for once in my life, what do you see in my life?, love has to be in my life, what do you see in my life?, love has to be in my life, in my life, in my life, deep in my life, in my life.
