You needed your freedom, I thought that I needed mine

We both were too young to know, we shouldn't let it go

We went our own ways, and time passed us by

Now when I think of those schooldays, I realize.

Once in a lifetime (once in a lifetime)

One in a million (one in a million)

Our love was that special kind that's so hard to find

But we didn't realize.

Yesterday in and out another town

Suddenly saw your face right out there in the crowd

You said you were happy, you've got someone who treats you right

And I recognize that fire in your eyes, oh girl you should be mine, 'cause.

Once in a lifetime (once in a lifetime)

One in a million (one in a million)

Our love was that special kind that's so hard to find

But we didn't realize.

Once in a lifetime (once in a lifetime)

One in a million (one in a million)

I've had my share of love

I know how to play the game

But there a feeling gained

I've never been the same

(No never been the same, never been the same)

Once in a lifetime

One in a million

I know I'm just chasing dreams

And I just can't seem to get you off my mind.

Once in a lifetime

One in a million

Once in a lifetime

One in a million (can't get you off my mind)

Once in a lifetime

One in a million

Once in a lifetime

One in a million

Once in a lifetime

One in a million...
