Nat King Cole Lyrics

"Once in a While" lyrics


(M. Edwards, B. Green)


Once in a while,
Will you try
To give one little thought to me,
Though someone else may be
Nearer your heart?


Once in a while,
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,
That spark may burn again.


I know that I'll
Be contented with
Yesterday's memory,
Knowing you think of me
Once in a while.


~interlude~


Once in a while...


In love's smoldering ember,
One spark may remain.
If love still can remember,
The spark may burn again.


I know that I'll
Be contented with
Yesterday's memory,
Knowing you think of me
Once in a while...
Once in a while.
