once more time

Steve Perry

Why
Why should I feel so sad
Thinking of times
When life was a smile

I've dreamed
Of turning back time
To memories so dear
Now I'm here
Where I must go on

When I close my eyes
I long to be there
One more time

Sometimes
I look back and smile
With a tear
Knowing that I'll
Never go back anymore

When I close my eyes
I long to be there
One more time

I know tomorrow
I'll look on today
So now I step back and reach for a smile
For now, here's my yesterday

When I close my eyes
I long to be there
One more time
