Tim, My Once-In-A-Lifetime

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Tim My Nigerian prince First touch I was done I was finished You were holding my heart like it’s something you’d lose Laughing in the kitchen Wearing out my shoes Love you Then we crash Then we come back again Same fight Same fire Same best friend You’re the storm You’re the calm in my chest You’re the worst and the best Yeah You’re the best [Chorus] Tim My once-in-a-lifetime love You’re the name that my soul won’t give up I can run I can rage I can cry your name out But I only feel right when you’re around Tim My once-in-a-lifetime love (once in a lifetime) Every prayer that I whisper above Is “bring him back to me Bring him back to me” ’Til the day you return You’re still home in me [Verse 2] We break Then we mend Then we break once more Slam doors Say words that we both regret sore But you call And it’s like all the noise just clears I can hear your heartbeat through the years You’re my joy You’re my ache You’re my wild Bright flame Every song in my chest spells your name If it’s meant If it’s right We will find our road I keep saving a space in my heart you wrote [Chorus] Tim My once-in-a-lifetime love You’re the name that my soul won’t give up I can run I can rage I can cry your name out But I only feel right when you’re around Tim My once-in-a-lifetime love (oh Tim) Every prayer that I whisper above Is “bring him back to me Bring him back to me” ’Til the day you return You’re still home in me [Bridge] I’m holding on Not letting go (holding on) Talking to God Only He knows If our paths will cross again If your hand finds mine I’ll be ready I’ll be steady I’ll be patient with time [Chorus] Tim My once-in-a-lifetime love You’re the name that my soul won’t give up I can run I can rage I can cry your name out But I only feel right when you’re around Tim My once-in-a-lifetime love Every day that I’m breathing is enough To keep praying us back Praying us back in tune ’Til the day you return I’ll be loving you
