One shot, oh Lord, you know It's gonna be a lot of negative things surroundin' you Tryin' to pull you down But what you have to remember is It's up to you, it's your choice You only get one shot in life And you only get one shot at love Did you ever notice every time you fall in love And it seems like you finally met the perfect match Everything is perfect, it seems divine But for some strange reason, there's always a catch It's a one-way relationship, it hurts inside One person smirks while the other one cries Butterflies in the stomach of the one who's in love It cuts like a knife, the truth mixed with lies One shot (One shot at love) One shot at love, one shot (One shot at love) One shot at love, one shot (One shot at love) One shot at love, one shot (One shot at love) That's all you get Physical and mental, those are two different loves Physical's a moment, mental is forever If the physical fades and gets weak, all of a sudden Remember, it's the mental love that keeps you together You gotta be strong and endure the hard times 'Cause after hard times, good times always follow And when you're kissin' and huggin' and makin' love Treat that person like there's no tomorrow One shot (One shot at love) One shot at love, one shot (One shot at love) That's all you get, baby One shot at love, one shot (One shot at love) One shot at love, one shot (One shot at love) That's all you get Jealousy, don't let it interfere Don't let it come in between The love you two share 'cause jealousy's a hateful god So merciless and mean And it's only job in life, is to ruin relationships And pit two people against one another And because of this god, the one you love so much Will no longer be your lover One shot (One shot at love) Aww baby, one shot at love, one shot (One shot at love) That's all you get, one shot at love, one shot (One shot at love) I mean this baby, one shot at love, one shot (One shot at love) That's all we I hope you understand what I just said All I'm sayin' is that you only get one shot at love in life And you have to hold on to that shot, take advantage of it 'Cause when you lose it, it's gonna hurt real bad Take it from me, you only get one shot and I mean that One shot You only get, you only get, you only get one You only get, you only get, you only get one (One shot at love) You only get, you only get, you only get one You only get, you only get, you only get one (One shot at love) You only get, you only get, you only get one You only get, you only get, you only get one (One shot at love) You only get, you only get, you only get one You only get, you only get, you only get one
