Once

"Once Once
Knew how to talk to you
Once Once
But not anymore


Once, once
I knew how to look for you
Once, once
But that was before

Once, once
I would have laid down to died for you
Once, once
But not anymore"

Tell me honey, will you play the part now? Or are stilettos still more attractive than sneakers? Does the blue ocean still call out to you? Does the purple bougainvillea still remind you of me? Do longer locks still hold the key to your heart?

Tell me honey, what's it like to be lonely in a city? 'Once' I'd have opened my doors for you. Not anymore.

Experience is a wonderful teacher - the only problem being that the test comes first and the lesson later!
