Mickey Newbury You Only Live Once In A While
We only live once in a while
So let's live for today we're alive
Between the first step and the last mile
We only live in a while
The hobo's taken the last milk train home
Bluebird's finished her singing and gone
My lady and me will be up for the dawn
You only live once in a while
Yes we only live once in a while
So let's live for today we're alive
Between the first tear and the last smile
We only live once in a while
See the willow how she catches the wind
Following me down the road round the bend
Over the years she's taught me friends
That we only live once in a while
Yes we only live once in a while
So let's live for today we're alive
Between the first step and the last smile
We only live once in a while
