Champagne cocktails after three
Cafe royale's the place for me
Penguin waiters chandeliers
All that glitters
Here inside my head my inside
Only once in a lifetime
It only happens once in a lifetime
Make the most of it
Don't play around with it
Only once in a lifetime
Take my hand you silver spoon
We can dance around the room
Angelo bring more wine
My friend and i
We wish to dine
Inside my head my inside
Chorus:
Only once in a lifetime
It only happens once in a lifetime
Make the most of it
Don't play around with it
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
It only happens only once
Only once in a lifetime
There's many a place i haven't been
Declined an offer from the queen
Refused admission (you can't come in here mate)
On the door
It's still that cafe royale
That scores inside my head my inside
Chorus
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Pictures in the fire
Reflections of myself
Take a look in the mirror
What do i see
A portrait of me
Chorus:
And the smoke curls up the chimney
Sending messages of love
But you're so far away
So far away
This cold wintry evening
I curl up by the fire
I wonder what you're doing
I know we agreed
To part for a while
Chorus
So here i am alone again
Pretending that you're with me
I can't so no/she can't say no
And i can't let go/and she can't let go
I thought he'd never leave me
Turning round i see you
I know it's tonight
It's just my heart deceiving
A trick of the light
And the smoke curls up the chimney
Sending messages of love
If only you were with me
Oooh oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh oooh oooh / oooh oooh oooh
Oooh oooh with me
And i can't say no ... she can't say no
And i can't let go ... and she can't let go
Pretending that you're with me
So here i am alone again
Thought you'd never leave me
