Lyrics
ONCE OR A MILLION TIMES
Verse 1
I'd give it all if all it bought were a ticket right next to you
I'd let it fall, I'd let it crumble if you could tell me what is true
And all the ways I would say to convince you this is right
I'm on my feet, you know this need and I am asking you tonight
CHORUS
I am falling over feelings,
Stumbling to stand
I wait to know if I should hold back
While I contemplate this hand
In this middle of this life
I now must catch my breath
I'll say it once or a million times if you like
You are where I land
Verse 2
We go again, knowin' we're bound to fall
An old familiar scene
And in a look, I know you get it all
And all it's meant to be
And all the ways I would say to convince you we should try
I'm on my feet sayin' I need you--please don't pass me by.
CHORUS
