Lyrical Transcription: Offical lyrics, taken from jumplittlechildren.com in the fall of 1997

Once I, looked back but never turned around
Now I hear footsteps
Once I, heard something that I meant to say
Now I see silhouettes
Once came one to many times
Now I see you only once in a while

Once I, fell for you falling into sleep
Now I'm just falling
Once I, stood on the edge of getting up
Now I'm just stalling
Once came one too many times
Now I see you only once
in a while

If I am pretending not to hear
Then don't make a sound
I can hear you whisper in my ear
When you're not around
While I hear you say
Once in a while I hear you say

Once I took what I meant to give away
Now I just hold on
Once I, gave up the thought of holding back
Now I just go along
Once came one too many times
Now I see you only once in awhile

If by chance I see you once more time
Will I hear you say "One more chance"
