Once In A Lifetime Songtext
von Patti Austin

I cherish each day of my life for your love
Honestly, feeling the movements
In Heaven, a million miles above
But now, I′ve seen more than my share
Still, I know that you care
Since you've walked into my life
And just follow me around everywhere

Well, I must have been good at sometime in my life
To have such a good man wanna make me his wife
For me in my life it could never be better
Than to see how you smile, but you′ll be this letter

Love only comes 'round like this
Once in a lifetime
For better or worse, death do us part
I cross my heart

But love only comes 'round like this
Once in a lifetime
From this moment on, here′s where it starts
I cross my heart


Well, I finally experienced
The passion of when a dream comes true
It′s all I imagined to the tenth power, baby
I wish you knew
I can honestly say, "My life's changed, and I′m destined to be
Forever in love with you, baby, right now until eternity"

Well, you've taken my heart to a wonderful place
Anybody can see by the look on my face
I′ll always be there whatever you do
To the stars from the sky if you want me to

Don't wanna live another day or sleep another night
Without having you near laying right by my side
I need you forever, and I can′t deny
I finally feel loved, and you're the reason why

Love comes like this (it comes around)
Once in a lifetime (just this once in a lifetime)
For better or worse, death do us part (ooh)
I cross my heart
Well, I'm crossin′ my heart for you, boy, right now

Love comes like this (I′m gonna love only you)
Once in a lifetime (comes 'round once in your lifetime)
From this moment on, here′s where it starts
I cross my heart


Crossin' my heart right now, right now (love only comes ′round like this)
Love only comes around (once in a lifetime)
Once in a lifetime, once in a lifetime
From this moment on, here's where it starts (ooh)
I cross my heart
I cross my heart
