(Yeah, yeah)
Oh-oh (you only get one)
Oh-oh, yeah (you only get one)
One love, lifetime
One love, lifetime

They say when you find the one there'll be no second guessing
You'd feel it deep in your heart you'll know that it was destiny
The feelin' inside will let you know
Something that you can't deny, just let it roll
They say it's better to love than never love at all
To appreciate all the good, sometimes you gotta fall
But I was foolish
I shouldn't have let you go
But now I miss you
I gotta let you know

I need you back, back in my life
I need your kiss, kiss in my life
And it's been so long since you been gone
Baby, won't you come back home
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime

Can't believe that I almost missed the signs
Right in front of my eyes
And now I know the love is real it's hard to say bye
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
And that one is you

They say that pleasure comes with pain
And I'm so used to being whole, it's hard to be half again
And you gotta feel the same way
My tears are steady falling like the pouring rain
Tell me will the forecast change (one, one)

If you love somebody, gotta let 'em know
Tomorrow's never promised, you gotta let it show
If you love somebody, you gotta let 'em know
Tomorrow's never promised, you gotta let it show

I need you back, back in my life
I need your, kiss kiss in my life
And it's been so long since you been gone
Baby, won't you come back home

You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
Can't believe that I almost missed the signs
Right in front of my eyes
And now I know the love is real it's hard to say bye
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
And that one is you (that one)
And that one is you (that one)
And that one is you (that one)
And that one is you (that one)
Is you

I would climb the highest mountain
Swim the deepest oceans for you, you, you ('cause you are the one)
I would walk across the desert just to get the message to you, you, you
('Cause you are the one)
There ain't a thing in this world that I wouldn't do
Right hand to the man
Boy, I'm tellin' the truth
So all my ladies if you feel me
Then put your hands up for that one
For that one

You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime (you only get)
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
Can't believe that I almost missed the signs
Right in front of my eyes (yeah-yeah)
And now I know the love is real it's hard to say bye (and now I know, I know, oh I)
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime (one in a lifetime)
(That one) ooh
That one
That one (one, one)
That one (say)
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime (ooh, I)
And I can't believe that I almost missed the signs
Right in front of my eyes
And now I know the love is real, it's hard to say bye
You only get one (one) one (one) love (love)
One in a lifetime (one in a lifetime)
(Ooh-whoa)
