Before
I had a premonition
Was I once here before
Now at the door knocking
Will opportunity
Make a score
It's not about the money
The fame
I could leave
Sometimes a person
Wishes
For
Someone to trust in
For their heart
To receive
I was in love before
Then I had to learn the hard way
Sometimes it is not enough
Just in this time and day
