In the land I now know to be mine
There the heart's so dark it's near blind
When I think about the life I've left behind
I still raise no praise to the sky
With my eyes on the prize of your bed
When all that's needed saying has been said
When I think about the life that I have lead
I laid down to the sound of the the wise
Once, once is enough to break you
Once, once is enough to make you think twice
About laying your love out on the line
Laid with all I now know to be true
And all I've figured out about you
All the crazy things a mind can do
I laid down to the sound of the truth
And it's not you
Once, once is enough to break you
Once, once is enough to make you think twice
About laying your love out on the line
Oh, I was a child once
Oh, oh, I was happy young
When all I didn't know needed doing, had been done
Once, once is enough to break you
Once, once is enough to make you think twice
About laying your love out on the line
