kansas - once in a lifetime lyrics

(a. armato / d. morgan / a. hammond)
if only it was raining out tonight
reflections on the sidewalks would take me back in time
you told me when i left you standing there
someday i'd be sorry
well that day is here

i was wrong, oh so wrong
i should have known
that you were the one
now i know a love like yours only comes along

once in a lifetime
once in your life you'll find
the kind of love that never ends
the kind i want back again

you were trying
i could see it in your eyes
as i held a one way fare
to some false paradise
i was dying to spread my restless wings
now just to see your face again
i'd do anything

i was wrong, oh so wrong
a dreamer in a small town can survive
now i know it's love like yours
that keep these dreams alive

once in a lifetime
once in your life you'll find
the kind of love that never ends
the kind i want back again
so let the rain fall down
take me back oh take me back
don't let me down
let the rain fall down
it's such a lonely sound
don't let me down

once in a lifetime
once in your life you'll find
the kind of love that never ends
the kind i want back again
