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 smolderin' ember
One spark may remain
If love still can remember
One spark may burn again
I know that I'd be
Contented with yesterday's memory
Knowing you think of me
Once in a while
Once in a while
Will you try to give
One little thought to me
Though someone else
May be nearer your heart
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 smolderin' ember
One spark may remain
If love still can remember
One spark may burn again
I know that I'd be
Contented with yesterday's memory
Knowing you think of me
Once in a while
Once in a while
Will you try to give
One little thought to me
Though someone else
May be nearer your heart
