Lyrics
One Time Too Many
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.
A one, two, three, two, two three.
I let love die, broke a woman's heart
Have only myself to blame
Fate ran its course, I suffered a loss
I learned a lesson in pain
I cheated and lied, I took love for granted.
Acting as cold as ice
But it's all in the past
I won't make the same mistake twice
Once is enough
It's one time too many
Change is rough
Ooo once is enough
Love went through such a sudden change,
Takin' a turn for the worst
Joy turned to fear, the pain got so severe
Lord, I thought I was cursed.
You get what you give, it comes 'round full circle
Ooo and I paid the price
I lost love so fast
I won't make the same mistake twice.
Brrrr Hoo!
I let love die, broke a woman's heart
And only myself to blame
Fate ran its course, I suffered a loss
Learned a lesson in pain
I cheated and lied, and took it all for granted
Acting as cold as ice
But it's all in the past
I won't make the same mistake twice
Once is enough
It's one time too many
The change is rough
Ooo once is enough
Love went through such a sudden change,
Takin' a turn for the worst
Joy turned to fear, the pain got so dear
Lord, I thought I was cursed.
You get what you give, it comes around full circle
Ooo and I paid the price
I lost love so fast
I won't make the same mistake twice.
Once is enough
It's one time too many
The change is rough
Ooo once is enough
Guitar, Yow!
I cheated and lied, and took it all for granted
Acting as cold as ice
But it's all in the past
I won't make the same mistake twice
Once is enough
It's one time too many
The change is rough
Ooo once is enough
One more time!
Once is enough
It's one time too many
The change is rough
Ooo once is enough
Aye yeah!
The change is rough
Ooo once is enough
Yeah yeah!
The change is rough
Ooo Once is enough
Yeah!
Yes!
