Once In a Lifetime

It's getting dark too soon A threatening silence Surrounding me, a wind Comes up from the islands When distance fades to stormy grey Washed out from the deep of the ocean Here I will stand to face your wrath While all the others are praying Calm down, my heart - don't beat so fast Don't be afraid, just once in a lifetime Calm down, my heart - don't beat so fast Don't be afraid, just once in a lifetime No rain can wash away my tears No wind can soothe my pain You made me doubt, you made me fear But now I'm not the same You took my wife, my unborn son Torn into the deep of the ocean I don't pretend that I love you 'Cause there is nothing left to lose And when silence comes back to me I find myself feeling lonely Standing here on the shores of destiny I find myself feeling lonely I had a life to give, many dreams to live Don't you know that you're losing so much this time? Beyond the waves, I will be free While all the others are praying Calm down, my heart - don't beat so fast Don't be afraid, just once in a lifetime Calm down my heart - don't beat so fast Don't be afraid, just once in a lifetime No rain can wash away my tears No wind can soothe my pain You made me doubt, you made me fear But now I'm not the same You took my wife, my unborn son Torn into the deep of the ocean I don't pretend that I love you 'Cause there is nothing left to lose The loving you, it does not burn There is no lesson you can learn And there are sounds you cannot hear And there are feelings you can't feel Calm down, my heart - don't beat so fast Don't be afraid, just once in a lifetime I don't pretend that I love you And this time I'm not scared of you
