Ambitious Lovers - It Only Has to Happen Once lyrics
[Ambitious Lovers - It Only Has to Happen Once lyrics]
It only has to happen once
For anybody else’s skin to feel
Rough or too thin all it takes
Is a quick constellation
Of daylight, headlights and precipitation
It only has to happen once
For anybody else’s sweat to taste
Too salty, or too sweet
It doesn’t take two nations
Or two signatures
Just two pupils, and a fool
It only has to happen once
It only has to happen once
For every caress to read
Desperate or repressed
Before a baby can tell right from wrong
It already knows the song
It only has to happen once
All it takes is a quick constellation
Of shadows, lashes and implication
It only has to happen once
For anybody else’s skin to feel
Rough or too thin all it takes
Is a quick constellation
Of daylight, headlights and precipitation
It only has to happen once
For anybody else’s sweat to taste
Too salty, or too sweet
It doesn’t take two nations
Or two signatures
Just two pupils, and a fool
It only has to happen once
It only has to happen once
For every caress to read
Desperate or repressed
Before a baby can tell right from wrong
It already knows the song
It only has to happen once
All it takes is a quick constellation
Of shadows, lashes and implication
It only has to happen once
