One More Time
7.7 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
How do you fix a broken heart?
How can we go back to re-write this from the start?
Back when our world glowed from just a spark?
Stuck inside this atmosphere
Watching my light just disappear
And all the things I've forgotten while you were here
Now I remember them all so clear
Just give me one more time
I'll swim through the high tide
I'll stand in the front lines
I'll give it all just to see your face
And tell you its alright
To hold you for one more night
Just give me one more time
Mr I don't need her
Now I think about her constantly though
If they made a machine that could register
How my cold my heart is off the meter
Now that that time is gone, I remember her favorite song,
And the spot in the middle of her back
She would laugh when I put my fingers on
Until the end of everything, and I'm gone and buried
You the only one that ever loved like this, and baby I hope you hear me
You search and you gonna find, deep down you know your mine
I'll fight to my very last breath, if that mean that I get just one more time
Just give me one more time
I'll swim through the high tide
I'll stand in the front lines
I'll give it all just to see your face
And tell you its alright
To hold you for one more night
Just give me one more time
I'm still alive, I still feel you So many words, I never told you
I'm still alive, I still feel you So many words, I never told you
I'm still alive, I still feel you So many words, I never told you
I'm still alive, I still feel you So many words, I never told you
Just give me one more time
I'll swim through the high tide
I'll stand in the front lines
I'll give it all just to see your face
And tell you its alright
To hold you for one more night
Just give me one more time
Just give me one more time
I'll swim through the high tide
I'll stand in the front lines
I'll give it all just to see your face
And tell you its alright
To hold you for one more night
Just give me one more time
