Once In A Lifetime

(Album: A Friend To Rely On - 1992)

People say that the odds are against you
And lightning won't strike
It's one in a million
Just like people told me that my dreams were all fantasies
I wouldn't make it, I showed them
They used to say my expectations of true love
Could never be real
Oh but then you came along and proved them all wrong
Like a miracle come true

Just once in a lifetime (once in a lifetime)
Once in my life
I'd find an angel just like you, discover that it's true
It happens once in a lifetime (once in a lifetime)
Once in my life
A love like yours will come my way
Believe me when I say
Just once in a lifetime, once in my life

You'll never know just how lucky I feel
You've come into my life
You've changed all my theories
Now I believe that anything can happen
Fairy tales can come true
And just like a ray of light that comes from the heavens
You fill my life
Oh with the love you have shown
You've answered the unknown
Like a miracle come true

Just once in a lifetime (once in a lifetime)
Once in my life (once in my life)
I'd find an angel just like you, discover that it's true
It happens once in a lifetime
Once in my life

People say that the two of us will pass
No one thought we made the perfect pair
But we'll show them that our love will always last

We'd find true love
I mean true love
Never knew love would ever get this way

We'd find true love
I mean true love
Never knew love would ever get this way
Would ever get this way

We'd find true love
I mean true love (once in my life)
Never knew love
I'd find an angel just like you, discover that it's true
It happens once in a lifetime

We'd find true love
I mean true love (once in my life)
Never knew love (once in my life)
A love like yours will come my way
Believe me when I say
It's only once in a lifetime

We'd find true love
I mean true love (once in my life)
Never knew love would ever get this way
(Once in my life)
We'd find true love
I mean true love (once in my life)
We'd find true love
