[Intro]
I've seen stars reborn in your eyes
Sky's on fire tonight
One life is never long enough
One life is never long enough
At last call, turn out the lights
I hope I treated you right
One life is never long enough for us
[Verse 1]
Too many people walk around with hearts hidin'
Terrified of hurtin', so they stay silent
Don't know what it's worth just to let a light in
Through the shade
If love had come to me, I wouldn't recognise it
Now every time you smile, it's a little priceless
No story I could weave would have ended like this
No way
[Pre-Chorus]
All your troubles, all your pain
Let me struggle, carry that weight
All your devils fall away
You're so easy to love
[Chorus]
I've seen stars reborn in your eyes
Sky's on fire tonight
One life is never long enough
One life is never long enough
At last call, turn out the lights
I hope I treated you right
One life is never long enough for us
[Verse 2]
Every time I look at you, I'm reminded
That nothing lasts forever, nothing stays timeless
Someday there'd be a kiss, and there'd be goodbyes
We're not exempt
Oh, I could lay beside you a thousand lifetimes
Live a thousand more and still pray for sunrise
Everything before you was a warning of what it meant
Woah
[Pre-Chorus]
All your troubles, all your pain
Let me struggle, carry that weight
All your devils fall away
You're so easy to love
[Chorus]
I've seen stars reborn in your eyes
Sky's on fire tonight
One life is never long enough
One life is never long enough
At last call, turn out the lights
I hope I treated you right
One life is never long enough for us
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh-ooh, hoo-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, hoo-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh) One life is never long enough
(Ooh-ooh) One life is never long enough
(Ooh-ooh, hoo-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, hoo-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh) One life is never long enough
(Ooh-ooh) For us
[Bridge]
I don't want it to be over
I don't wanna say goodnight
Want that morning in December
For the rest of my life (Doh-oh)
I don't want it to be over
I don't wanna say goodnight (Doh-oh)
Want that morning in December
For the rest of my life
[Chorus]
I've seen stars reborn in your eyes
Sky's on fire tonight
One life is never long enough
One life is never long enough
At last call, turn out the lights
I hope I treated you right
One life is never long enough for us
[Post-Chorus]
(Ooh-ooh, hoo-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, hoo-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh) One life is never long enough
(Ooh-ooh) One life is never long enough
(Ooh-ooh, hoo-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh, hoo-ooh)
(Ooh-ooh) One life is never long enough
(Ooh-ooh) For us
[Outro]
One life is never long enough for us

What did Dermot Kennedy say about "One Life"?
If you look through my listening history, it’s 90% hip-hop. As this album came together, I was like, ‘I feel like I’m not touching on that much.’ But also, you can’t force that, because you can’t pretend to be a rapper if you’re not one. And so with this song, I was really pleased, it felt like that...
