Title:
“One More Time”
Full song lyrics:
(Verse 1)
[C] Slow as a sunset, [G] fast as a tear,
[Am] Your voice echoes, [D] I can still hear.
[C] You said you loved me, [G] but you had to go,
[Am] I’m left in pieces, [D] with nothing to show.
(Chorus)
[G] One more time, [C] I’ll play our song,
[Am] Dreaming of the place, [D] where we belong.
[G] One more time, [C] I’ll say your name,
[Am] Knowing that my life, [D] will never be the same.
(Verse 2)
[C] Underneath the stars, [G] where we used to lie,
[Am] I remember your touch, [D] your whispered goodbye.
[C] I still smell your perfume, [G] on our empty bed,
[Am] A lingering memory, [D] of words left unsaid.
(Chorus)
[G] One more time, [C] I’ll play our song,
[Am] Dreaming of the place, [D] where we belong.
[G] One more time, [C] I’ll say your name,
[Am] Knowing that my life, [D] will never be the same.
