Once In a While

The Gigolo Aunts


"ONCE IN A WHILE"
(Gibbs/Hurley)

I pressed my cheek to the cool tabletop
And wished the dance playing down my spine would stop 
The moon was hanging there in the window blue 

And once in a while I wish that it was true
Once in a while a little bit of broken heart could do

I took a long drink tasting of tin 
And swallowed every conversation again 
A distant car horn was trying to break through 

And once in a while I wish that it was true
Once in a while I wish that it was true
Once in a while a little bit of broken heart could do

But like the rain it's gonna soak you through 
Past the skin and the bone
To the flight and the flown 
Soaking everything you own

And once in a while I wish that it was true
Once in a while I wish that it was you
Once in a while a little bit of broken heart could do
