Lyrics
[Chorus]
Nights go by and without you
I know your love comes once in a lifetime, love comes once in a lifetime
Nights go by and without you
I know your love comes once in a lifetime, love comes once in a lifetime
[Verse 1]
She was the neighborhood dream girl, can look, but don't touch
They all wanna know us, if it ain't with me, then it can't be no one
When the groupies came to the show, when the money started to grow
You stayed down, don't play around, look at this girl we made now
Been around the world and I came right back for your love
Forgive me for the days and nights I was cutting up
Wanted the motions in the ocean, emotions covered up
From flashing lights in the club to magazine covered up
Fly you to Miami and cop you floor seats
And you would always tell me your heart was for me
Way before the models ripped the runway
It was us, drop-tops, speeding down the runway
[PreChorus]
So let's go, I want you to know that you're special
I'll never compare you to no one
Baby, 'cause I know that your love comes
Once in a lifetime
[Chorus]
Nights go by and without you
I know your love comes once in a lifetime, love comes once in a lifetime
Nights go by and without you
I know your love comes once in a lifetime, love comes once in a lifetime
[Verse 2]
And she was prom queen, I'm just a new Jack
My city tatted on my back, she had my back, I knew that
But I started looking for more when they started feeling the flow
Them girls trouble, come more than a lifetime and time don't wait for no one
I'm out here like I throw ones and they dance for me
My man, he warn me how my come-up might just cancel me
Now I gotta go fix that, get that, hit that, he flip that in that
Like I used to be big D-A-D-D-Y, I'm so special
She can't have another dude that woo her
I got my Bugatti, but that just pickup new hers that sears these years
On Lears, get weird, my fear is tears that smears and make-up
Don't ever make up, you better wake up
[PreChorus]
So let's go, I want you to know that you're special
I'll never compare you to no one
Baby, 'cause I know that your love comes
Once in a lifetime
[Chorus]
Nights go by and without you
I know your love comes once in a lifetime, love comes once in a lifetime
Nights go by and without you
I know your love comes once in a lifetime, love comes once in a lifetime
[Bridge]
Only got one life to live
And I wanna spend it with you
Love the money and the cars, but listen, baby
You are what I've been missing
Only got one life to live (To live)
And I wanna spend it with you (With you)
Love the money and the cars, but listen, baby
You are what I've been missing
[Chorus]
Nights go by and without you
I know your love comes once in a lifetime, love comes once in a lifetime
Nights go by and without you
I know your love comes once in a lifetime, love comes once in a lifetime
[Outro]
Only got one life to live (To live)
And I wanna spend it with you (With you)
Love comes once in a lifetime
Love comes once in a lifetime
Only got one life to live (To live)
And I wanna spend it with you (With you)
Love comes once in a lifetime
Love comes once in a lifetime
