"Once in a While" by Leo Sayer

Writers: Alan Tarney

I think of this most every night 
how hard it is to get it all right 
I'm looking here and I'm lookin' there 
I see a heart broken 
pieces everywhere 

wouldn't you try and wouldn't you know 
you try so hard still to let it all go 
too much trouble and too much pain 
I think I'm gonna have that luck again 

what'll I do if you walk away 
what'll I do if you walk away 
well I haven't a chance 
no I haven't a chance 

once in a while I get this feeling 
now and again I'm all in a daze 
time after time I ask myself this 
will you walk away 
once in a while I get this feeling 

a crazy notion -- a careless thought 
I start to worry and time gets short 
we'll think of this my dear young one 
the time to act has just begun
