talking heads - once in a lifetime (live) [2023 remaster] lyrics
[verse 1]
you may find yourself living in a shotgun shack
you may find yourself in another part of the world
you may find yourself behind the wheel of a large automobile
you may find yourself in a beautiful house, with a beautiful wife
you may ask yourself, “well… how did i get here?”
[chorus]
letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
letting the days go by, water flowing underground
into the blue again after the money’s gone
once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
[verse 2]
you may ask yourself, “how do i work this?”
you may ask yourself, “where is that large automobile?”
you may tell yourself, “this is not my beautiful house”
you may tell yourself, “this is not my beautiful wife”
[chorus]
letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
letting the days go by, water flowing underground
into the blue again after the money’s gone
once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
[bridge]
same as it ever was, same as it ever was
same as it ever was, same as it ever was
same as it ever was, same as it ever was
same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[verse 3]
water dissolving and water removing
there is water at the bottom of the ocean
remove the water, carry the water
remove the water from the bottom of the ocean
[chorus]
letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
letting the days go by, water flowing underground
into the blue again, after the money’s gone
once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
into the blue again, into the silent water
under the rocks and stones, there is water underground
letting the days go by, into the silent water
once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
[verse 4]
you may ask yourself, “what is that beautiful house?”
you may ask yourself, “where does that highway lead to?”
you may ask yourself, “am i right? am i wrong?”
you may say to yourself, “my god! what have i done?”
[chorus]
letting the days go by, let the water hold me down
letting the days go by, water flowing underground
into the blue again, after the money’s gone
once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
into the blue again, into the silent water
under the rocks and stones, there is water underground
letting the days go by, into the silent water
once in a lifetime, water flowing underground
[bridge]
same as it ever was, same as it ever was
same as it ever was, same as it ever was
same as it ever was, same as it ever was
same as it ever was, same as it ever was
[outro]
time isn’t holding us, time isn’t after us
time isn’t holding us, time isn’t holding us
time isn’t holding us, time isn’t after us
time isn’t holding us
letting the days go by
letting the days go by
letting the days go by
once in a lifetime
letting the days go by
letting the days go by
letting the days go by
once in a lifetime
