What did I say
To send you a-rolling past me?
I was afraid I would lose you someday
Like I lost me that day

In all my dreams
Your face is hidden from me
Flawless and soft velvety shade
What were you hiding from?
Who were you hiding from?
I want to know

And what is time?
I can't leave it alone
Oh
I have to know, I have to know, I have to know

And just once, just once, just once?
Did you love me once?
I've been ready

What did I say?
Oh, what did I say?
And what did you want, what did you want, what did you want?
A life in the dark?
A life in the dark?

And what is time?
I can't leave it alone
Oh
I didn't know, I didn't know

But just once, just once, just once?
Did you love me once?
And just once, just once, just once?
Did you love me once?

And I have been ready for so long
And I'm not about to pretend, pretend, pretend, pretend
And I'm not about to resist, resist, to resist
I've been drowsy

I'll make you beg
I'll make you beg
You knew it would wash away
In the crying and the gush and the New England Rain
But I'm not afraid
I'm not afraid

And just once, just once, just once
I could love you once
And just, just once, just once, just once
I could love you once
To love me
