There are things
i can�t tell you
i love you too much to say
i stand undressed
but i�m not naked
you look at me and who i am
Understand that it is hard to tell you
that i�ve given all i have to give
and i can understand your feelings
but then everybody has a life to live
Once in a lifetime
you have seen what i�ve seen
you will always swim for shore
once in my lifetime
i�ll never be in between
some things you just can�t ignore
Now reach out
you can touch me
i�ll let you have my life to share
years, the days
and the minutes
yeh time has such a puzzling grace
Understand that it is hard to tell you
that i�ve given all i have to give
and i can understand your feelings
but then everybody has a life to live
Once in a lifetime
you have seen what i�ve seen
you will always swim for shore
once in my lifetime
i�ll never be in between
some things you just can�t ignore
Once in a lifetime
you have seen what i�ve seen
you will always swim for shore
once in my lifetime
i�ll never be in between
some things you just can�t ignore
I just need to have your love
i just can�t say no
it�s a gift from way above
i just can�t say no
it�s the one big difference
if there�s one thing i can have
i just can�t say no
i just can�t say no
yeh yeh yeh
Once in a lifetime
you have seen what i�ve seen
you will always swim for shore
once in my lifetime
i�ll never be in between
some things you just can�t ignore
Once in a lifetime
you have seen what i�ve seen
you will always swim for shore
once in my lifetime
i�ll never be in between
some things you just can�t ignore
Once in a lifetime
