Текст песни Only Once - Maria McKee

I've never been obliged to stay in one place for too long
There's a bad seed bred inside me and it keeps me moving on
Have I ever been persuaded to give it up and stay at home
Was I tempted by an angel
Only once, only once

Now I wanna be the kind of girl who'll only make you proud
But the noise and fuss and wanderlust will always drag me down
But if anyone should ask me have I ever been in love
I will think of you and tell them Only Once

Only once did a pair of lips on mine make me cry
Only once for a pair of arms around me would I die

I will love you till I'm saved
I will love you from my grave
And love like this can happen Only Once

All the men who try to save me
Weave their wicked web around me
All the ones I try to save drink their fill and leave me lonely

Have I ever felt salvation wash me cleaner than a dove
Was I ever nearly happy? Only Once

Only once was a stupid girl allowed to tempt her fate
Only once did I think twice
And twice was once too late

I'm going down like Jezebel and my body aches like hell
I share my bed just to forget
I said no Only Once

I will love you till I'm saved
I will love you from my grave
And love like this can happen
Only Once, Only Once
