Once (Live From Knebworth 22) Lyrics

[Verse 1]
It was easier to have fun back when we had nothing
Nothing much to manage
And back when we were damaged
And sometimes the freedom we wanted feels so uncool
You just clean the pool
And send the kids to school

[Chorus]
But oh, I remember how you used to shine back then
You went down so easy like a glass of wine, my friend
When the dawn came up, you felt so inspired to do it again
But it turns out you only get to do it once

[Verse 2]
I think it's true what they say that the dream is borrowеd
You give it back tomorrow
And minus the sorrow
And the pain shе just comes in to break up the daydream
Her knife edges waving
To keep from feeling the same thing

[Chorus]
But oh, l remember how you used to shine back then
You went down so easy like a glass of wine, my friend
When the dawn came up, you felt so inspired to do it again
But it turns out you only get to do it once
[Bridge]
You only get to do it once
You only get to do it once
You only get to do it once
Once!
Once!
Once!
Once!
Once!
Once!
Once!
Once!

[Chorus]
But oh, I remember how you used to shine back then
You went down so easy like a glass of wine, my friend
When the dawn came up, you felt so inspired to do it again
But it turns out you only get to do it once

[Outro]
Thank you!

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
