That was maybe a year ago. I hadn't really thought of it or had the desire to view it--until recently. I dunno why, but that video's been on my mind a lot since Saturday or Sunday. I even tried finding it to redownload, but no such luck. The best I can do is give you the lyrics--and try to find the CD for myself:
Once In a Lifetime
Cuando anochezca
Te esperare
Quiero volverte loco esta noche
Con la luna llena
Te esperare
Hoy moriras entre mis brazos
Nunca sonaras de mi aun igual
When the darkness falls
I will wait for you
I want to drive you crazy tonight
With the full moon
I'll wait for you
Tonight you'll die in my arms
You never dreamt of anything like
Let me dive in
To pools of sin
Wet black leather on my skin
Show me the floor
Lay down the law
I need to taste you more
Then I feel your sea
Raining down on me
Can this be my once in a lifetime
Hell's at heaven's door
As I need you more
You know you're my once in a lifetime
Todo tu cuerpo temblara
Pero esta ves, es realidad
Aunque el tiempo pase
Nunca
Nunca me olividaras
Sera
Solo una ves en tu vida
Your whole body will tremble
But this time is reality
Though the time will pass
You'll never, never forget
It will be only once in your life
When you take me
And make me cry
Then I feel you satisfy
Show me the cage
It's all the rage
And lock it up
Found a part of me
That's a mystery
That will be just once in a lifetime
When the moon is high
Passion never dies
Will you want me for all a lifetime?
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
Once in a lifetime
Giving you my soul
Letting you control
Took away a part of my lifetime
Memories of you
Left me black and blue
Now I know you're once in a lifetime
Then I feel your sea
Raining down on me
Can this be my once in a lifetime
Hell's at heaven's door
As I need you more
You know you're my once in a lifetime
Found a part of me
That's a mystery
That will be just once in a lifetime
When the moon is high
Passion never dies
Will you want me for all a lifetime?
Then I feel your sea
Raining down on me
Can this be my once in a lifetime
Hell's at heaven's door
As I need you more
You know you're my once in a lifetime
Found a part of me
That's a mystery
That will be just once in a lifetime
Sarah Brightman
Alone the lyrics are dark, I know. Dark and seductive and hopeless...almost. The refrain is really the only source or mention (hint) of hope or redemption. You really need the entire thing (music and the video clips) together to get the true impression.
*pauses and thinks on how best to explain this next part* Life is so ironic or coincidental at times. My craving or desire to see this video again stemmed from a sudden memory of it. All I remembered was the video and the melody of the song. And, of course, the catch phrase, Once in a lifetime. But it was a disconcerting shock, somewhat, to read the lyrics. I had forgotten, or hadn't been totally aware, of all the lyrics. But they fit with my mood of late, with what's been going on in my head. I want my once in a lifetime; I want my redemption. I am a light to someone in their darkness, I just hope I can be enough of one while their's is struggling to glow ever more brightly.
