Once in a Lifetime Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I've been around long enough to know
I've heard the story told
I've seen this life unfold
I heard a sound, a voice I don't recall
A stranger I don't know
My back against the wall
[Chorus]
I'm done running away
I'm coming, I will escape
Take me away
This place is never the same
Never the same
This is once in a lifetime
[Verse 2]
I've been running in circles
I've been chasing the sun
I guess I'm looking for something
But I just don't know what
Everything has a purpose
Everyone has their doubts
Why's it feel so uncertain?
Why you running around?
I've been around long enough to know
I've heard the story told
I've seen this life unfold
I heard a sound, a voice I don't recall
A stranger I don't know
My back against the wall
[Chorus]
I'm done running away
I'm coming, I will escape
Take me away
This place is never the same
Never the same
This is once in a lifetime
[Verse 2]
I've been running in circles
I've been chasing the sun
I guess I'm looking for something
But I just don't know what
Everything has a purpose
Everyone has their doubts
Why's it feel so uncertain?
Why you running around?
[Pre-Chorus]
It ain't easy, leave it up to me
A perfect place to be
A perfect place to be
[Chorus]
I'm done running away
I'm coming, I will escape
Take me away
This place is never the same
Never the same
This is once in a lifetime
[Bridge]
Something's happening, this feeling's setting in
I refuse to give in, hold on, hold on
There's a vibe in the air, when the truth comes clear
You can find it here, hold on, hold on
[Chorus]
I'm done running away
I'm coming, I will escape
Take me away
This place is never the same
Never the same
This is once in a lifetime
Yeah, but I'm done running away
It's something I can't explain
Ready for change
You know that I can't stay
It's never the same
This is once in a lifetime
It ain't easy, leave it up to me
A perfect place to be
A perfect place to be
[Chorus]
I'm done running away
I'm coming, I will escape
Take me away
This place is never the same
Never the same
This is once in a lifetime
[Bridge]
Something's happening, this feeling's setting in
I refuse to give in, hold on, hold on
There's a vibe in the air, when the truth comes clear
You can find it here, hold on, hold on
[Chorus]
I'm done running away
I'm coming, I will escape
Take me away
This place is never the same
Never the same
This is once in a lifetime
Yeah, but I'm done running away
It's something I can't explain
Ready for change
You know that I can't stay
It's never the same
This is once in a lifetime
[Outro]
Lifetime
I'm done running away
It's something I can't explain
Take me away
This place is never the same
Never the same
This is once in a lifetime
Lifetime
I'm done running away
It's something I can't explain
Take me away
This place is never the same
Never the same
This is once in a lifetime
