Lyrics

Lovers, they come and go
Just like the seasons
And lately, it's learnin' to know
When it's the real one
It may be close at hand
Don't try to understand it all

'Cause once in a lifetime
First love, they tell you to wait
For the right one
And then it's too late
Next time, just leave it to fate
You only get a chance
Once in a lifetime. mmm

Your heart aches
For every day, anticipatin'
Just hold on, your time will come
'Cause you've been waitin'
Don't let it bring you down
Your second chance will come around

'Cause once in a lifetime
First love, they tell you to wait
For the right one
And then it's too late
Next time, just leave it to fate
You only get a chance
Once in a lifetime. yeah, eh

Don't worry cause
It's bound to happen
It ain't easy when
Your life is passin' you by
It doesn't matter how you try
You know it's just a state of mind. yeah, yeah

First love, they tell you to wait
For the right one
And then it's too late
Next time, just leave it to fate
You only get a chance
Once in a lifetime

Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime. mmm
