Once in a Lifetime

 

It has become apparent,

it is over with no hope.

The war has been lost,

the battle is over.

We had a once in a lifetime,

I just didn't know it.

I had thought that it was forever,

oh how I was wrong about that.

I had an idea that it was troubled,

I had no idea that it was dying.

When it did I thought that maybe,

it was just for a little while.

Now I am forced to face the music,

the marching band parading by.

Loosing the woman that I love,

Loosing my dreams and hopes.

We had a once in a lifetime,

not an entire lifetime like I'd hoped.
