Lyrics

It only happens once,

Expressing a unique, singular occurrence.

I'll never feel that thrill again,

Reflecting on the loss of a special experience or feeling.

It only happens once,

Reiterating the idea of a one-time event.

Why couldn't I have known it then?

Expressing regret for not realizing the significance at the time.


Since I lost you, dear one,

Describing a change in life after losing a loved one.

Nothing seems to be the same,

Highlighting the profound impact of the loss on the speaker's perception of life.

I tried hard but it's no use,

Acknowledging efforts to cope with the situation but without success.

My heart won't play the game.

Expressing emotional distress and the inability to move on.


It only happens once,

Repeating the theme of a unique and irreplaceable event.

I realize that now is past,

Realizing that the special moment has passed, indicating a sense of time slipping away.

And I was such a dunce,

Admitting to a mistake or lack of understanding that contributed to the loss.

Because I couldn't make it last.

Expressing regret for not being able to make the meaningful experience last.


Why go on pretending?

Questioning the authenticity of moving on and forming new connections.

I just can't love someone new.

Declaring an inability to replace the lost connection with someone new.

It only happens once,

Reiterating the idea that certain experiences are singular and cannot be replicated.

And for me that once was you!

Affirming that the unique event was the speaker's connection with the addressed person.


Why go on pretending?

Reiterating the difficulty of pretending to move on and form new attachments.

I just can't love someone new.

Affirming the speaker's struggle to develop feelings for someone new.

It only happens once,

Emphasizing the irreversibility of certain significant experiences.

And for me that once was you!

Affirming that the unique experience was the speaker's connection with the addressed person.
