Lyrics

Once Is Enough

(Kathy Kallick & Todd Phillips, Southern Melody Publishing Co./BMI)

The first night welcomed me back to the human race
Tired of living life like such a hard luck case
No one could know the emptiness inside that place
Tucked between my ears and just behind my face

In my mind I’m walking down that summer road
Listening to the sweetest stories we have told
If luck be with us time may find us growing old
Still enraptured watching as life unfolds

CHORUS:

This love is the kind of stuff that dreams are made of
It happens only once, once is quite enough
Once is quite enough

You have loved me like nobody has before
Your love is unlocking every secret door
And as I know myself I know I love you more
Your absence is the vacuum that my heart abhors

In my nature there’s a need to fill your needs
The mirror image upon which your spirit feeds
To learn the taking turns will be our task, it seems
As we stay falling ever drawing closer you to me

CHORUS
This love is the kind of stuff that dreams are made of
It happens only once a lifetime, once is quite enough
Once is quite enough
Once is quite enough
