Once Before I Go lyrics
by Hugh Jackman
[Verse 1]
Once before I go
I want you to know
That I would do it all again
I'm sure I'd make the same mistakes
That I could make it through the pains
And joys and aches I knew back then
[Verse 2]
I would do it all
I'd do it all again before I go
I want you to know
That I look back with no regrets
And when our luck was wearing thin
And we were down and out
And still came back to win against all bets
Now when I look back
I still have no regrets
[Chorus 1]
And it's so hard to say goodbyes
When there's so much that's left unspoken in your eyes
But unless I spread my wings again, I'm afraid I'll never soar
So hang on to the memories and hold me close once more
[Refrain]
Once more, just once before I go
I want you to know
That I have loved you all along
And even when we're far apart
I only need to feel you're living in my heart
And I'll be strong
[Interlude]
I'll love you just the way
I've loved you all along
[Chorus 3]
And it's so hard to say goodbyes
When there's so much that's left unspoken in your eyes
But unless I spread my wings again, I'm afraid I'll never soar
So kiss me for the last time and hold me close once more
[Refrain]
Once more, just once before I go
I want you to know
That I have loved you all along
And even when we're far apart
I only need to feel you're living in my heart
And I'll be strong
[Outro]
You are the light that shines on me
You always were and you'll always be
So I had to let you know, just this once
Just this once before I go
