Comes Once In a Lifetime

Every day, just go along dawn till sundown

Is a rundown

Every day that comes, comes once in a lifetime

Take each day and gather the rosebuds in it

Fill each minute

Every day that comes, comes once in a lifetime

Think of now, tomorrow is waiting in the wings

Who knows what it brings

While the future waits, the present swings

From day to day, in Brooklyn or China ‘cross the bay

Only once comes this particular sky

Only once these precious hours will fly

Only once in a lifetime today comes by

So live, live, live today

Fill each minute

Every day that comes, comes once in a lifetime

Think of now, tomorrow is waiting in the wings

Who knows what it brings

While the future waits, the present swings

From day to day, in Brooklyn or China ‘cross the bay

Only once comes this particular sky

Only once these precious hours will fly

Only once in a lifetime today comes by

So live, live, live today

La la la la la la

So live today
