"In Our Lifetime" is a song by Scottish pop rock band Texas. The first single from their fifth studio album, The Hush (1999), it was released on 12 April 1999 in Europe and on 19 April 1999 in the United Kingdom. The song peaked at number four on the UK Singles Chart and became the band's second number one on the Scottish Singles Chart. It was also included on the soundtrack of the 1999 romantic comedy Notting Hill.^[2]

Background

Texas lead singer Sharleen Spiteri commented on the song:

"I think it's pretty important to say, 'Once in a lifetime, you have seen what I've seen/You will always swim for shore.' To me, that's a personally important lyric and that's how I write. I'm talking about a relationship where, for the first time, I've met someone who's the same as me. You don't find that often: this person who challenges the thoughts I challenge other people with. That's why I refer to it being once in a lifetime."
— Sharleen Spiteri, ^[3]

Critical reception

A reviewer from Daily Record viewed the song as "brilliant".^[4] In his review of The Hush, Stephen Dalton from NME wrote that "these 12 tracks perform their ear-soothing job with ruthless efficiency", noting the "opulent swingbeat trundle" of "In Our Lifetime".^[5] Sunday Mercury described it as a "great Hong Kong Garden pastiche".^[6]
