Once and Once Only
You have to start somewhere
to take that first movement
that act of taking that first step
moving from that first scent
Take that step onwards and go
move when you're asked to
no holding back in reverse
just once that's all you have to do
Consider it all for once
take your time there's no rush
but once you've moved
you're separated from the crush
After it's happened once
you'll wonder why the wait
afterwards it seems so easy
now you've had your first date!
