Album: The Dreamer

U've Only Got 1 Lyrics

Here's a story that I wanna tell

 Bout a guy I used to know so well

 Who lived his life so carelessly

 The most popular boy in school

 Who would've thought he'd fall the victim too

 When his future seemed so promising

 

 Some say he came from the perfect home

 A family with money 

 There was love like I have never known

 He let the shadows pour through his heart

 Poisoned his veins he got lost

 Now he's runnin

 You know u've only got

 

 [Chorus]

 1 life, 1 life 2 live

 U've got 2 wake up

 B4 u miss out on it

 U've only got 1 chance

 1 chance to be

 And that's all u've got 2

 Fulfill ur destiny

 U've got 2 love urself

 Love urself

 Love urself

 

 There was this friend of mine

 She lived a really lonely life

 She never thought she was good enough

 Such a beautiful silhouette 

 But I'm ugly is what she said

 She didn't know the value of her worth

 

 Some say her father's the one to blame

 He loved her in ways she never told

 Little girls should never know 

 She ran away just to save her soul

 Escape from the painful memories

 She's still runnin

 U know u've only got 1

 

 [Chorus]

 

 No one can have a perfect life

 2 live u have 2 survive

 U gotta take the good with the bad

 And the bitter with the sweet

 Life can be so sweet

 But first u gotta find the peace

 Ur inner joy is yours alone

 But first u've got 2 love urself

 

 [Chorus]
