Lyrics

At Least I've Had Love Once ©2014
Stanza one- The good times that we shared, makes me smile;
talking, laughing, touching, beautiful as a coastal isle.
The time has helped me see, content is where I'll be;
with the start of each new day, this is what I wanna say.

Chorus- I'm not mad 'bout being alone; joy's still found here in my home.
Cupid's lost my address, & if he doesn't come again, at least I've had love once.

Stanza two- Headed to my favorite hangout, dinner now for one;
also call my friends, going out to have some fun.
I've found my life's still great, gotta lot good going on,
embracing who I am, enjoying til the day is done.

Chorus- I'm not mad 'bout being alone; joy's still found here in my home.
Cupid's lost my address, & if he doesn't come again, at least I've had love once.

Interlude . . . I'm grateful to have loved, and my heart is so free, what we shared, conquered & faced, has made a better me

Chorus- I'm not mad 'bout being alone; joy's still found here in my home.
Cupid's lost my address, & if he doesn't come again, at least I've had love once (repeat).
