Once in a Lifetime

It's not fair, you're takin' me by surprise
It's like you're appearin' right before my eyes

I didn't stand a chance
It's forever in a glance

And it's only once in a lifetime, baby
That someone like you comes along
Once, once in a lifetime

There was a time it seemed I was looking in vain
And there in the night, I heard someone call out my name

You reached to take my hand
But did you understand

That it's only once in a lifetime, baby
That someone like you comes along
Once, once in a lifetime
Not something that we pick or choose
(Baby, we can't pick or choose)
It's not something I intend to lose

Only once (only once) in a lifetime, baby
That someone like you comes along
Once in a lifetime
(Only once in a lifetime)
That someone like you comes

Only once (only once) in a lifetime, baby
That someone like you comes along
Once in a lifetime
(Only once in a lifetime)
It's only once (only once) in a lifetime, baby
That someone like you comes along

Once in a lifetime
(Only once in a lifetime)
It's only once (only once) in a lifetime, baby
