Story Behind The Song
'One More Time' reflects a woman searching for true love. Over and over she travels the same path, mistaking superficial love for true love...while on her knees, true love is revealed to her.
Song Description
Instead of multi-layerd music this poem is accompanied only by a single piano. The rembrance of true and gentle love in the face of lies, the act of ' going to my knees ' is musically expressed in a silent awakening.

Lyrics
One More Time
One more time my broken heart
Has brought me to my knees
In search of true and gentle love
You spoke the words my heart wanted to hear
And the touch of your hands
Fooled my neglected starving heart?one more time
One more time I searched for love
One more time I was weak
When you said you would love me until the end
Or until the morning light
Once again my broken heart
Has brought me to my knees
In search of true and gentle love
One more time I searched for love
One more time I heard the words
?I will love you forever, you will have my heart
until the morning light?
As I starred into your eyes
And listened to your lies
I remembered the true and gentle love I found
When I was on my knees
