1 For Once

1.1 For once she’s actually beautiful

And not accepting the blame

For once she’s something special

Sitting near the flame.

For once she threw out her ticket

She’s going to walk through the day

She’s decided to stand tall and take it

Now that she can, she won’t run away.

For once she’s considered special

For once she’s not just nobody

For once life’s worthwhile.

Once again he’s got his ticket

And this time he may use it

This time he might take off

He’s never had to face it

This time he may have had enough.

He looked into her eyes

And knew she’d always care

But this place he’ll always despise

Stay back he would not dare.

She can stay here and stay strong

She can stay and love him

But he has a need to leave,

Things given are always sent back,

He’ll know on Judgement’s Eve.
