Greg Lake Let Me Love You Once Before You Go Lyrics

When there's something i can't have,
i only want it more.
you know i sure found out the hard way
that it's true.
'cause there's a storm inside of me
from wantin' you.
how i wish that i'd found you in time,
'cause now you're his and can't be mine.

but you can start a fire raging
just by touching me.
even though i know
we're not supposed to touch.
oh, i've never wanted anyone so much.
how i wish that i had found you first,
can't you see my heart's about to burst.

so let me love you once before you go.
your eyes keep saying yes to me,
so don't keep saying no.
let me love you once and then you'll see,
no one's ever gonna love you more than me.

let me lock the door
and open all my love to you.
all the love i've longed to give you
since we met.
it's the only chance i'm ever gonna get. and i just can't let it disappear,
oh my darling, please come over here.

and let me love you once before you go.
your eyes keep saying yes to me,
so don't keep saying no.
let me love you once and then you'll see,
no one's ever gonna love you more than me.

let me lock the door
and open all my love to you.
all the love i've longed to give you
since we met.
it's the only chance i'm ever gonna get.
and i just can't let it disappear,
oh my darling, please come over here.

and let me love you once before you go.
your eyes keep saying yes to me,
so don't keep saying no.
let me love you once and then you'll see,
no one's ever gonna love you more than me.
no one's ever gonna love you more than me.
no one's ever gonna love you more than me.
