One More Time Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Baby, we used to drive in your car
What happened to us?
Yeah, we didn't make it very far
I never thought that we would end like this
Until you gave me your last kiss
We slept on the floor all night
I fell in love with you as the seconds went by
Can you tell me just what changed your mind?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
'Cause you were obsessed with me like we were 17
And you struggled to keep your hands off me
But now look at us now
Somehow we drowned
[Chorus]
I just want you one more time
I just want you one more time
Won't you give me one last night?
With you, with you
[Verse 2]
It's been 3 months now, can we talk it out?
How you left me standing outside the front of your house
Saw you through the window crying on the stairs
I thought you didn't care
Baby, we used to drive in your car
What happened to us?
Yeah, we didn't make it very far
I never thought that we would end like this
Until you gave me your last kiss
We slept on the floor all night
I fell in love with you as the seconds went by
Can you tell me just what changed your mind?
[Pre-Chorus 1]
'Cause you were obsessed with me like we were 17
And you struggled to keep your hands off me
But now look at us now
Somehow we drowned
[Chorus]
I just want you one more time
I just want you one more time
Won't you give me one last night?
With you, with you
[Verse 2]
It's been 3 months now, can we talk it out?
How you left me standing outside the front of your house
Saw you through the window crying on the stairs
I thought you didn't care
[Pre-Chorus]
I just wanna pull you close
But there's walls in-between
Can't we just go back to when we were 17?
[Chorus]
I just want you one more time
I just want you one more time
Won't you give me one last night?
With you, with you
[Bridge]
I lie awake and think how we used to be, we used to be
You'd do all the little things that made me weak
They made me weak
[Chorus]
I just want you one more time
I just want you one more time
Won't you give me one last night with you?
I just want you one more time
I just want you one more time
Won't you give me one last night?
With you, with you
I just wanna pull you close
But there's walls in-between
Can't we just go back to when we were 17?
[Chorus]
I just want you one more time
I just want you one more time
Won't you give me one last night?
With you, with you
[Bridge]
I lie awake and think how we used to be, we used to be
You'd do all the little things that made me weak
They made me weak
[Chorus]
I just want you one more time
I just want you one more time
Won't you give me one last night with you?
I just want you one more time
I just want you one more time
Won't you give me one last night?
With you, with you
I just want you one more time
I just want you one more time
Won't you give me one last night?
With you, with you
I just want you one more time
Won't you give me one last night?
With you, with you
