Once and only once, my

Once and only once, my shiny friend,
Is what holds the truth to me or you,
There was never more from start to end
When I saw you ever in the blue,

Twice and only twice, my ringing mate,
There was quite enough from you to me,
When you loved and loved enough to wait,
I had ever touched eternity,

Thrice and only thrice when time was young,
Closer to the home of every king,
All the songs that no one else has sung,
Under all the other stars that sing,

Take it all at once as now you see,
Hope and all the sounds of victory.

There once was a what-do-you-know
That didn’t have that far to go
And yet it quite stopped
When the temperature dropped
And that is about all we know
