One Time Around

lyrics

One time around. We don't just live once
In one time around I've lived so many lives.
I don't believe them when they say you only live once
'Cause I've lived so many lives and I've not even tried.
Once, twice, three, four. I Don't think I can take any more
I'm still getting used to this.

And the danger is... the changes
The butterflies die and the flowers rise again.
You can't change that. We must face that.
There's nothing that you or I can do.

One time around. We don't just live once
In one time around I've lived so many lives.
I'm not the same me as I was when I was fifteen.
But I can remember times in that other younger life.
Now that I'm reincarnated I'm much wiser and so understated.
There's nothing that I'm afraid to do.

And the danger is...the changes
The butterflies die and the flowers rise again.
You're not chained to this you can escape this.
And shed your skin to begin again.

One time around. We don't just live once
In one time around I've lived so many lives
