Once in a while will you try to give one little thought to me

Though someone else maybe nearer your heart



Once in a while will you dream of the moments I shared with you,

Moments before we two drifted apart.



In love's smoldering ember, one spark may remain,

If love still can remember the spark may burn again.



I know that I'll be contented with yesterday's memory,

Knowing you think of me once in a while.
