Once in my life I have the chance to find
Once in my life I have the chance to find

Once in a lifetime I have the chance to find the key to my dreams
And I know, that it's so good for me

Once in a lifetime I have the chance to find the key to my dreams
And I know, that it's so good for me

In the beginning trouble times in my life
I needed a shoulder to cry on
Had no direction until I met you
Everything is gonna be all right
Looking out beyond the stars
Searching always wishing
Often I thought that love would escape me
You got the key babe

Once in a lifetime I have the chance to find the key to my dreams
And I know, that it's so good for me

Once in a lifetime I have the chance to find the key to my dreams
And I know, that it's so good for me

I was lost couldn't find my way
You took my hand and chased my blues away
Your inspiration is guiding me through
I'm feeling brand new
Memories of days gone by
Hurting always hurting
You've taken my pain away finally
You set me free babe

Once in a lifetime I have the chance to find the key to my dreams
And I know, that it's so good for me

Once in a lifetime I have the chance to find the key to my dreams
And I know, that it's so good for me

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.
