ONCE

By Jo Fox
[VERSE]

Once, I caught a second
And held it in my hand
It shimmered and it sparkled
Then crumbled into dust

[VERSE]

Once, I paused a minute
The round world kept on spinning
I saw a thousand lifetimes
Turn before my eyes

[CHORUS]

If your time runs out
Hope, another gives theirs to you
The rarest gift to offer
One moment of a kind

[VERSE]

Once, I found an hour
It stayed for so much longer
I made each second count
And turned it into three

[CHORUS]

If your time runs out
Hope, another gives theirs to you
The rarest gift to offer
One moment of a kind

[BRIDGE]

For once, I lost a day
My life fell into darkness
I guess I’ll never know
What it could have been

[CHORUS]

If your time runs out
Hope, another gives theirs to you
The rarest gift to offer
One moment of a kind

[OUTRO]

One moment of a kind

[FADE OUT]
