Every now and then, when the lights are low
Every now and then, when the wind does blow
Every now and then, I think of you
Every now and then, when a girl walks by
And holds her head like you held yours high
Every now and then, I think of you
And once in awhile, when the sun sets right
And the full moon glides like a diamond in the night
Every now and then, I think of you
I held on to a dream 'til it died
I had to admit that our love was a lie
Still every now and then, I think of you

And I remember you and I in a soft golden light
Nothing like here and tonight
I won't hear about anyone's life but our own
And all that I have is hope
Baby, you never know

Every now and then, when a friend says, "Hi"
And asks about us, I just wanna die
Every now and then, I think of you
I wanna say, everything's just fine
But only a fool could believe that line
Still every now and then, I think of you
