once in a while

You take the long walk home

The tide is coming in

As you get heavy

Under the weight of it all

And just want to understand

Life goes by

So fast

It's all that you

Can think about

This time

It skips a beat

My wish for you

Never changes

Nothing but happiness

I'll stay for you

Even when you doubt me

This much I know to be true

Life goes by

So fast

It's all that you

Can think about

This time

It skips a beat

(Once in a while)

It's never too late it's never to soon

(Softly now)

To feel lighter without your reflection

You can talk

No matter what

I am here

We get used up, but somehow

We carry on

Through all the years

Quiet waters drag you down

They lift once in a while

Softly we collide in this darkness

Remind each other we exist

These wandering souls

Just passing through

We give everything

Whatever we were

We are still

Disparate pieces

Life goes by

So fast

It's all that you

Can think about

This time

It skips a beat

(Once in a while)

It's never too late it's never too soon

(Softly now)

To feel lighter without your reflection

Life goes by

So fast

It's all that you

Can think about

This time

It skips a beat

(Once in a while)

We make believe that there is something more

(Softly now)

But in the end it will come for us all
