“In a Lifetime“ is a pop song performed by Clannad and Bono. It was written by brothers Pól Brennan and Ciarán Brennan and produced by Steve Nye. The single was released in January 1986, and was the third single to be released from Clannad’s eighth studio album Macalla (1985). It is one of Clannad’s most successful songs and it remains as Bono’s most successful solo effort. The single was re-released in 1989 with a change of artwork on the cover and a different B Side (“Indoor“). Lyrics: Hard to tell Or recognize a sign To see me through A warning sign First the thunder Satisfied, if the past it will not lie (then the storm, torn asunder ) The future you and I get blown away (in the storm) In a lifetime, in a lifetime And as the rain it falls We begin again (heavy in my heart) As the storm breaks through (believe the light in you) So the light shines in you Without color, faded and worn Torn asunder in the storm Unless the sound can save your body and soul Unless it disappears Selfish storm (first the thunder)(then the storm) Torn aside (one life) In the storm In a lifetime In a lifetime In a lifetime In a lifetime
