Lyrics

Twice in a Lifetime (Malone / Steir ©1991)

I know that you have loved and lost

Love leaves at such a cost

Taking with it all your innocence

Heaven knows I've had my share

The walls inside my soul grew bare

When all the trust and promises were spent


The second time around you'll find

We'll leave our torn love coats behind

We'll take this thread of hope to fate

No fleeting promises

There may be sunshine

There may be laughter

There may be moonlight

There may be thunder

When the rain falls

We'll walk together

You'll find that love shines

Twice in a lifetime

We shot the lights out of the stars

As veterans we share the scars

From all our fleeting passionate mistakes

The hand that bleeds, the hand that feeds

Turing knives in back of me

Spinning back around a second late


But there's a medal for the brave

A ticker- taping love parade

for those of us who aren't afraid

A second chance at love

There may be moonlight

There may be thunder

When the rain falls

We'll walk together

You'll find that love shines

Twice in a lifetime
