Every Now and Then

Every now and then I got out with a friend or two

And have a few rounds

I make it home by ten, but I remember when

I used to close that place down

The whiskey and the smoke and a couple tasteless jokes

Don't taste the way they did

I just do it every now and then to remind myself why

I just do it every now and then

And every now and then I surrender to a whim

My wheels wind up west of town

And I turn down that street that just turns out to be

A road I shouldn't go back down

All those memories they've turned to ghosts and weeds

I dont' wanna hurt like that again

I just do it every now and then to remind myself why

I just do it every now and then

(Chorus)

Sometimes I forget why things in my past

Are things in my past

Sometimes to see clear why I left there for here

I gotta take a step back

Every now and then I spend a minute with the man

I was till I loved you

And I walk those empty miles, reminisce and reconcile

And I smile at the me you never knew

He's good for a good laugh, but anything beyond that

I don't wanna relive

I just do it every now and then to remind myself why

I just do it every now and then

(Repeat Chorus)

Every now and then I go out with a friend or two
