A one, two, three, two, two, three
I let love die, broke a woman’s heart
Have only myself to blame
Fate ran its course, I suffered a loss
I learned a lesson in pain
I cheated and lied, I took love for granted
Acting as cold as ice
But it’s all in the past
I won’t make the same mistake twice
Once is enough
It’s one time too many
Change is rough
Ooo, once is enough
Love went through such a sudden change
Takin’ a turn for the worst
Joy turned to fear, the pain got so severe
Lord, I thought I was cursed
You get what you give; it comes ’round full circle
Ooo, and I paid the price
I lost love so fast
I won’t make the same mistake twice
Hoo!
I let love die, broke a woman’s heart
And only myself to blame
Fate ran its course, I suffered a loss
Learned a lesson in pain
I cheated and lied, and took it all for granted
Acting as cold as ice
But it’s all in the past
I won’t make the same mistake twice
Once is enough
It’s one time too many
The change is rough
Ooo, once is enough
Love went through such a sudden change
Takin’ a turn for the worst
Joy turned to fear, the pain got so dear
Lord, I thought I was cursed
You get what you give; it comes around full circle
Ooo, and I paid the price
I lost love so fast
I won’t make the same mistake twice
Once is enough
It’s one time too many
The change is rough
Ooo, once is enough
Guitar, yow!
I cheated and lied, and took it all for granted
Acting as cold as ice
But it’s all in the past
I won’t make the same mistake twice
Once is enough
It’s one time too many
The change is rough
Ooo, once is enough
One more time!
Once is enough
It’s one time too many
The change is rough
Ooo, once is enough
Hey, yeah!
The change is rough
Ooo, once is enough
Yeah, yeah!
The change is rough
Ooo, once is enough
Yeah!
Yes!
