So many stones to turn and stare at

I'm sure you're sorry but it's not enough to balance off

I can recall a happy song

But such a lot has turned out wrong

I'm only starting to appreciate how dark it got



Once in a while

Once in a while

Once in a while everything was perfect

Till you dragged the cat in

Once in a while



Until you ask me to

I don't know what I'll do

I don't wanna drive you away

I don't wanna beg you to stay

But I can't forgive you till you ask me one day



I threatened I would pack my bags

How could you ever let that happen?

I'm sure you're sorry but you never showed any regret

I can't provide the compliments

To ease your mind at my expense

I know you love me but I'd rather found you cared back then



Once in a while

Once in a while

Once in a while everything was perfect

Till you dragged the cat in

Once in a while
