Taking on what others have hassled
Looking back to darker days getting me down
And if this is chaos
I think that I’m in love with clamor
Tides are turning
never understood my undeveloped story
But it makes sense to me, you make sense to me

When it all falls down, I’ll still be right here
When it all falls down, we’ll still be right here

Once in a lifetime, I could feel this way
Once in a lifetime, you could feel it too

Cancel your black subscription
I’m nowhere near a cigarette
And I’m cut clear as you wander
Past this lonely street and wonder
Dance all night, dance all night
The kids are all here, and we’re downtown
We’re past the morning glory
It’s ten past two
and I’m still working on forty

Once in a lifetime, I could feel this way
Once in a lifetime, you could feel it too
Once in a lifetime, I could feel this way
Once in a lifetime, you could feel it…

Dance all night, dance all night
Dance all night, dance all night
Dance all night, dance all night

When it all falls down, I’ll still be right here
When it all falls down, I’ll still be right here

Once in a lifetime, I could feel this way
Once in a lifetime, you could feel it too
Once in a lifetime, I could feel this way
Once in a lifetime, you could feel it…

Dance all night, dance all night
Dance all night, dance all night

Behind the Song:
'this song was inspired by a guns and roses video (i think it was november rain) where all their wives/girlfriends were sitting on their laps at the rainbow room just hanging out with each other. i thought that was the pinnacle of being in band, good friends, in a smoke filled bar, with the ones i love, making the most of the moment.' - Stephen Christian
