Analysis of One more time



To say true love comes only once

You must be kidding or a dunce

Remember when you couldn't live

Without that one, and had to give

What made you feel alive and strong

How could this be bad or wrong?

And never did you even think

That all it took was a just a wink

So don't forget to say your prayers

It happens in a blink, not once

Not twice but sometimes

Thrice...they'll throw you rice
