Smokie Norful - Once In A Lifetime

Chorus / Description : The song Once in a Lifetime by Smokie Norful talks about finding true love, purpose, and joy in life through a relationship with God. The lyrics imply a biblical perspective on finding fulfillment in God rather than worldly achievements. The reference to the only thing for me that counts and finding joy that can't be replaced aligns with biblical teachings on finding fulfillment in a relationship with God (Matthew 6:33, Psalm 16:11).

Once In A Lifetime Lyrics


As a little boy I used to dream of the big stage
Couldn't wait to see my name in lights
I had a dream so big, it made a mountain look small
Couldn't wait till I had it all

The closer I'd get, the more distant I'd feel

The more I thought I had, the less it all seemed real

Suddenly I found, the only thing for me that counts
And I can't imagine my life without you

[Chorus:]
Once in a lifetime you find a love you know is real
Once in a lifetime you find something that makes your song live
Once in a lifetime you find a friendship that's worth the wait
Once in a lifetime you find joy you can't replace

I used to think that it was the trophies on my wall
Thought if I won then I'd have it all
And I couldn't wait till everybody knew my name
I had my own idea of fame

The closer I'd get, the more distant I'd feel
The more I thought I had, the less it all seemed real
Suddenly I found, the only thing for me that counts
I can't imagine my life without you

[Chorus:]
Once in a lifetime you find a love you can't let go
Once in a lifetime you find the purpose to live on
Once in a lifetime you find the meaning of your dreams
And once in a lifetime you find the one who gives life meaning
Once in a lifetime you find a love you know is real
Once in a lifetime you find something that makes your song live
Once in a lifetime you find a friendship that's worth the wait
Once in a lifetime you find joy you can't replace

Once in a lifetime I've found the best thing I know
Once in lifetime there's no sign of letting go
Once in a lifetime I wouldn't change a single thing
Once in a lifetime you made my whole world sing
I'll never look beyond your love again
Because I know what I've found is truth

Though I've searched in every place to find a thing that makes life complete,
Now I know Lord that thing is Youâ?¦
