When the time had come
Many times before
Many lives before
Many wives before
When every mother's child
Every father's son
Joined the regiments
Of the generals
When the night had gone
And the day had dawned
We realized how great a loss
Just once
If we only had a single chance
Just once
With a decision that
Would influence the world
What would we do
If we were given just once
If the final rule
In a court of law
Could determine life
Or death for all
Or punishment
Of the innocent
And negligence
Of the guilty men
Would the world
Be brought to loftiness
Or fall unto its knees
Just once
If we only had a single chance
Just once
With a decision that
Would influence the world
What would we do
If we were given just once
To make the wisest choice
That we have ever made
Just once
What would we do
If we were given
Just once
