Anthony D’Amato - Once lyrics

Once I found love in the basement
Once I found love in the patience
Once I found love in a blackbird
Flying through the air in a dark, dark blur

Once I found love in the distance
Once I found love resistant
Once I found love on the river shore
My throat so parched and the water pure

Once I found love in the judge's heart
Once I found love in the prisoner's art
Once I found love in the raven sky
I waited till the morning for the sun to rise
Once I found love in the fallen snow
Once I found love as the virgin
Once I found love in the midnight mare
I woke up in a sweat, but it was still there

Once I found love in the blink of an eye
Once I found love in the night
Once I found love on a long black road
I got lost in the woods on my way back home

Once I found love in a tidal wave
Once I found love in a shallow grave
Once I found love in the gas lamp glow
Uptown in the south
Where they talk real slow

Once I found love in a hollow tree
Once I found love in my enemy
Once I found love on the sidewalk
I watched a child draw your
Face with some big, big chalk

Once I found love in a love song
Once I found love getting blood drawn
Once I found love in your eyes, dear
Once I found love but it disappeared
