Only Once Songtext
von Tom Jones

When I was very young
And life was mean
My world was always
Full of dreams
Growing old was far away
No tomorrow just today
Nothing is the way it seemed
I knew that one day
I would fall in love
The way young peope always do
How could I know what lay ahead?
Life played games with me instead
Didn′t count on meeting you Only once
I always thought that love came
Only once
That when you fell
You fell in love to stay
Now all at once
I realize it isn't so
That love can come
And love can go
It happens everyday
She was mine with her
I found a world that couldn′t end
Or so I thought right up until today


Then all at once
I moved across and saw you there
And suddenly I knew nothing I could do
Would make me look away.
