Once Earth for all creatures A thought for all (wo)men Right for the speechless Wrong until then? Eyes for the laughter Thirst for the tongue Hands for together Ears for the song The song of love We sing in silence Every moment long Once Here to be done as we do With only one chance Here for the wonder of under the stars For the one and only Once Joy for the children Hope for the chance Men for the women Now for the dance The dance of love We dance just once In unique circumstance Once Here to be done as we do With only one chance Here for the wonder of under the stars For the one and only once ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Copyright Kate Bush Music Ltd.
