Lyrics

[Verse 1]

There's more to questions than answers

And sand will slip through your hands

And love is faster than lightning

So grab it while you can

[Verse 2]

Well, I've been searching forever

Between the bad and the good

But now I know what I'm missing

I wanna make it with you

[Chorus]

One night in a lifetime

One life in a night

One night in a lifetime

Baby, it's got to be tonight

Baby, it's got to be tonight

[Chorus]

One night in a lifetime

One life in a night

One night in a lifetime

Baby, it should be tonight

Baby, it should be tonight

[Bridge]

One night in a lifetime

One night, one night, one night

In a lifetime, one night

[Verse 3]

They say that love is a gamble

And luck will play a trick or two

But I'll risk all of my loving

I'd put my last buck on you

[Chorus]

One night in a lifetime

One life in a night

One night in a lifetime

Baby, it's got to be tonight

Baby, it's got to be tonight

[Chorus]

One night in a lifetime

One night in a life

One night in a lifetime

Baby, it's got to be tonight

Baby, it's got to be tonight

[Bridge]

One night in a lifetime

One night, one night, one night

In a lifetime, one night

[Chorus]

One night in a lifetime

Won't you hear me tell you now

One night in a life

One night in a lifetime

Baby, it's got to be tonight

Baby, it's got to be tonight

[Outro]

One night in a lifetime

Don't hear me now, yeah

One life in a night

One night in a lifetime

Baby, it should be tonight

Baby, it should be tonight
