Once In Every Long and Lonely While

Once in every long and lonely while

You will wonder why you were beguiled by her

She with all her little charms

Is safe in someone else's arms

So why is it she still alarms your heart?

Where are all the dreams that once you shared?

Tell yourself you never really cared for her

Fool yourself as time goes by

But then when you believe the lie

Oh, why should you be haunted by her smile

Just once in every long and lonely while?
