Once In a While

Once in a while
Will you try to give
One little thought to me
Though someone else
May be 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
That one spark may remain
If love still can remember
That spark may burn again

I know that I'll be contented
With yesterday's memory
Knowing you think of me
Once in a while
