Tom Jones — Only Once

When I was very young and life was new My world was always full of dreams Growing old was far away Though tomorrow's yesterday Nothing is the way it seems I knew that one day I would fall in love The way young people always do How could I know what lay ahead Life played games with me instead Didn't count on meeting you Only once, I always thought that love came only once That when you fell, you fell in love to stay Then all at once I realized it isn't so That love can come and love can go It happens every day She was mine With her I found a world that wouldn't end Or so I thought right up until today Now all at once I looked across and saw you there And suddenly I knew Nothing I could do would make me look away Now all at once I looked across and saw you there And suddenly I knew Nothing I could do would make me look away Now all at once I looked across and saw you there And suddenly I knew Nothing I could do would make me look away
