In Our Lifetime

There are things I can't tell you, I love you too much to say

I stand undressed but I'm not naked

You look at me and who I am

Understand that it is hard to tell you

That I've given all I have to give

And I can understand your feelings

But then everybody has a life to live



Once in a lifetime, you have seen what I've seen

You will always swim for shore

Once in my lifetime, I'll never be in between

Some things you just can't ignore



Now reach out, you can touch me, I'll let you have my life to share

Years, the days and the minutes, yeh time has such a puzzling grace

Understand that it is hard to tell you

That I've given all I have to give

And I can understand your feelings

But then everybody has a life to live



Once in a lifetime, you have seen what I've seen

You will always swim for shore

Once in my lifetime, I'll never be in between

Some things you just can't ignore

Once in a lifetime, you have seen what I've seen

You will always swim for shore

Once in my lifetime, I'll never be in between

Some things you just can't ignore



I just need to have your love (I just can't say no)

It's a gift from way above (I just can't say no)

It's the one big difference if there's one thing I can have

(I just can't say no, I just can't say no) Yeh yeh yeh



Once in a lifetime, you have seen what I've seen

You will always swim for shore

Once in my lifetime, I'll never be in between

Some things you just can't ignore

Once in a lifetime, you have seen what I've seen

You will always swim for shore

Once in my lifetime, I'll never be in between

Some things you just can't ignore

Once in a lifetime.
