Once

Written by：Anthony D'Amato

Once I found love in the basement

Once I found love in the patience

Once I found love in a blackbird

Flying through the air in a dark dark blur

Once I found love in the distance

Once I found love resistant

Once I found love on the river shore

My throat so parched and the water pure

Once I found love in the judge's heart

Once I found love in the prisoner's art

Once I found love in the raven sky

I waited till the morning for the sun to rise

Once I found love in the fallen snow

Once I found love as the virgin

Once I found love in the midnight mare

I woke up in a sweat but it was still there

Once I found love in the blink of an eye

Once I found love in the night

Once I found love on a long black road

I got lost in the woods on my way back home

Once I found love in a tidal wave

Once I found love in a shallow grave

Once I found love in the gas lamp glow

Uptown in the south where they talk real slow

Once I found love in a hollow tree

Once I found love in my enemy

Once I found love on the sidewalk

I watched a child draw your face with some big big chalk

Once I found love in a love song

Once I found love getting blood drawn

Once I found love in your eyes dear

Once I found love but it disappeared
