Lyrics
Once In A While
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Once in a while, she don't wanna call you
Speaking on the telephone
And once in your life, she don't wanna know you
You look around, the one you found, she is gone
And that's all the time
That it takes
For a heart to turn to stone
The sweeter the wine
The harder to make the break
You hear something about someone you thought you'd known
So baby don't cry
Like there's no tomorrow
After the night
There's a brand new day
And there'll be no pain
And no more sorrow
So wash your face and call my place
It'll be Ok
And that's all the time
That it takes
For a heart to beat again
So give me a sign
That a lover makes
You look around, the one you found
Is back again
So baby don't cry
Like there's no tomorrow
After the night
There's a brand new day
And there'll be no pain
And no more sorrow
(Fades)
