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 awhile will you try to give one little thought to me
Though someone else maybe nearer your heart
Once in awhile will you dream of the moments I shared with you
Moments before we two drifted apart
In love's smoldering ember one spark may remain
If love still can remember, the spark may burn again a-a-a-a-and
I know that I'll be contented with yesterday's mem-ory,
Knowing you'll think of me once in awhile.
