[Verse 1]
Only one life
Just a tiny spark
But now that he is gone
I'm somewhere in the dark
[Pre-Chorus]
If there are ten million men
On this planet, tell me then
[Chorus]
How could only one life
Leave such a mark on me?
One life
How could I have known?
One life
Could be such a part of me
As precious as my own
Only one life
[Verse 2]
Only one life
What does it mean?
It's only birth and death
And everything between
[Pre-Chorus]
If livin' is a pointless chore
Just existence, nothing more
[Chorus]
Why does only one life
Leave such an empty space?
One life
Make it right or wrong
One life
Take the love I can't replace
That always will be known
To only one life
[Bridge]
Just another song among so many
So who cares if one should fall?
Though we're small, we're full of magic when we
Touch the world, we change it all
With only one life
[Pre-Chorus]
We only have once chance to find
But if we live it right
[Chorus]
All we need is one life
To make a difference here
One life
It's such a small amount
One life
To say we care, to make it clear
We have to make it count
Once and for all
With only one life
Only one life
Only One Life was written by Jimmy Webb.
Only One Life was produced by Bergen White & Geoff Thurman & Ken Harding & Glen Campbell.
