Once Is Enough Lyrics

Once was enough when you called my name

Once was enough to rule my brain

One for my body or one for my soul

But once is enough when your love takes a toll

You flicker across my dreams in the night

With thoughts of our love if it all had gone right

But you broke me down, yeah you burned up my cold

Cause once is enough when your love takes a toll

So listen here boys and I'll tell you the truth

If you love em or leave em they'll still get to you

I was a fool when I fell for your eyes

But the look that they gave haven't seen since that night

Well they told me your story and I'm glad that I know

But once is enough when your love takes a toll

So listen here boys and I'll tell you the truth

If you love em or leave em they'll still get to you

So love em and suffer or leave for the blues

It don't matter to me and you don't really choose

Well maybe I'm better off for it all

The love and the heartbreak and the bruise on my jaw

Well one thing's for certain I'm going back home

Cause once is enough when your love takes a toll

So listen here boys and I'll tell you the truth

If you love em or leave em they'll still get to you

So love em and suffer or leave all the blues

It don't matter to me and you don't really choose

It don't matter to me and you don't really choose
