Lyrics
Again
This couldn’t happen again
This is that once in a lifetime
This is the thrill divine
What’s more
This never happened before
Though I have prayed for a lifetime
That such as you would suddenly be mine
Mine to hold
As I’m holding you now
And yet never so near
Mine to have
When the now and the here disappear
What matters, dear, for
When
This doesn’t happen again
We’ll have this moment forever
But never, never again (never, never)
We’ll have this moment forever
But never, never again (never, never)
