Just Once in My Life The Beach Boys

[Verse 1: Carl Wilson]
There's a lot of things I want
A lot of things that I'd like to be
But girl I don't foresee
A rags to riches story for me

[Pre-Chorus: Carl Wilson & Brian Wilson]
I've given up on schemes
Because everyone fell through
I've given up so many things
Don't ask me to give up on you
And baby, baby

[Chorus: Carl Wilson & Brian Wilson]
Just once in my life
Let me get what I want
Girl, don't let me down
Just once in my life
Let me hold onto a good thing I found
Don't let me down

[Post-Chorus: Carl Wilson]
Baby, say that you'll be staying

[Verse 2: Carl Wilson]
I couldn't face the day
If you weren't here by my side
And if you went away
Then I'd be left without any pride
