Lyrics

One Never Knows, Does One?

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

One never knows, does one?

When love will come along

Then so suddenly life turns out to be a song

One never knows, does one?

The moment or the place

Then right before your eyes

Someone occupies your embrace

Someday look and you'll find

Two hearts were blest

Someday fate may be kind

Pray for the future

Hope for the best

One never knows, does one?

That's just the way it goes

All at once you hear

"Hold me. Caress me"

And then love may come

But when, one never knows
