Frank Myers - Once Upon a Lifetime Lyrics

ONCE UPON A LIFETIME
(FRANK J MYERS GARY BAKER)


ONCE UPON A LIFETIME, I LOOKED IN SOMEONE'S EYES
AND FELT THE FIRE BURNING IN MY HEART
FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME
I WAS SCARED AND YOUNG, AND HAD NEVER TASTED LOVE
BUT A WOMAN TOOK MY HAND, TURNED A BOY INTO A MAN
ONCE UPON A LIFETIME

ONCE UPON A LIFETIME, YOU HOLD THE QUEEN OF HEART'S
BUT IF YOU GAMBLE ON A DIAMOND WHEN THE DEALINGS STARTS
YOU STAND TO LOSE IT ALL, AS THE CARDS BEGIN TO FALL
AND THE LESSON LEARNED IS HARD
YOU'RE ONLY DEALT THE QUEEN OF HEARTS
ONCE UPON A LIFETIME

CHORUS
SO IF YOU'RE TAKING CHANCES KNOW THE CHANCE YOU TAKE
A BROKEN HEART'S A HIGH PRICE TO PAY
FOOLISH WAYS WILL MAKE FOOLS OFF THE WISE
AND THE BEST THINGS SELDOM COME ALONG TWICE

ONCE UPON A LIFETIME, YOU KNOW THAT YOU'VE BEEN BLESSED
WHEN YOU HOLD YOUR FIRST BORN TENDERLY AGAINST YOUR CHEST
AND THROUGH THE INNOCENSE YOU SEE, THE VALUE OF A FAMILY
AND YOU FEEL A SPECIAL BOND, THAT ONLY COMES ALONG
ONCE UPON A LIFETIME

CHORUS
SO IF YOU'RE TAKING CHANCES KNOW THE CHANCE YOU TAKE
A BROKEN HEART'S A HIGH PRICE TO PAY
FOOLISH WAYS WILL MAKE FOOLS OFF THE WISE
AND THE BEST THINGS SELDOM COME ALONG TWICE
AND PEOPLE ONLY FINDONCE UPON A LIFETIME, A LOVE LIKE YOURS AND MINE
