Comes Once In a Lifetime

Tony Bennett

Every day, just go along dawn till sundown
Is a rundown
Every day that comes, comes once in a lifetime

Take each day and gather the rosebuds in it
Fill each minute
Every day that comes, comes once in a lifetime

Think of now, tomorrow is waiting in the wings
Who knows what it brings
While the future waits, the present swings

From day to day, in Brooklyn or China ‘cross the bay
Only once comes this particular sky
Only once these precious hours will fly
Only once in a lifetime today comes by
So live, live, live today

Fill each minute
Every day that comes, comes once in a lifetime

Think of now, tomorrow is waiting in the wings
Who knows what it brings
While the future waits, the present swings

From day to day, in Brooklyn or China ‘cross the bay
Only once comes this particular sky
Only once these precious hours will fly
Only once in a lifetime today comes by
So live, live, live today

La la la la la la
So live today
