Twice in a Lifetime

by Paul McCartney

Now I know that it can easily happen

To someone like me

I don't want to step on anybody's toes

Who knows how to find love

Think before you give your answer

Who knows what a mystery may bring

Once in a life I'm a lucky man

If I can find the kind of love

That's gonna last for me

Twice in a lifetime

Is one of those unspoken dreams

We usually reserve for fantasy

Who knows how we find love

Stop before you give your answer

Who knows when a mystery begins

I know, I know

I know because it's happening to me

I know, I know

Twice in a lifetime

Is one of those unspoken dreams

We usually reserve for fantasy

Who knows how we find love

Stop before you give your answer

Who knows when a mystery begins

I know, I know

I know because it's happening to me

I know, I know

About this Song

Twice In A Lifetime by Paul McCartney explores themes of love, second chances, and the power of seizing opportunities when they arise. The lyrics reflect on the idea that some experiences are so rare and valuable they might only come around once or twice in a lifetime. McCartney draws on poignant imagery to convey the significance of these moments. The song emphasizes the emotional depth of rekindling a cherished connection and the joy that comes from embracing love again. A particularly moving aspect of the song is its recognition of the finite nature of such opportunities, urging listeners to appreciate and act upon them when they can.
