Neil Diamond - Once In A While Lyrics






Once in a while, I would call
Asking only to find you there

Once in a while, I would call
Asking only to know

And once you were mine long ago
When the evening was warm and free
Once you were mine
When the evening
Was full with that glow

And who could have known
We'd have flown far away
From the way we were
Knowing the way we were
Once in a while
Once in a while

And who could have known
We'd have flown far away
From the way we were
Knowing the way we were
Once in a while
Once in a while

And who could have known
We'd have flown like two birds
To another place
Only to find our space
Once in a while
Once in a while

    Once in a while, I would call
    Asking only to find you there
    Once in a while, I would call
    Asking only to know

    And once you were mine long ago
    When the evening was warm and free
    Once you were mine
    When the evening
    Was full with that glow

    And who could have known
    We'd have flown far away
    From the way we were
    Knowing the way we were
    Once in a while
    Once in a while

    And who could have known
    We'd have flown far away
    From the way we were
    Knowing the way we were

    Once in a while

    And who could have known
    We'd have flown like two birds
    To another place
    Only to find our space
    Once in a while
    Once in a while

    I am glad to see Neil did not go the way of many rock stars, he kept his wits about him. I like the 40s music he made a double album that was so good I could not believe he was able to change so drastically and it was the best he ever did I thought.

    G.... H....

    Yep, he was very smart, very lucky, or had really good people around him. I choose to believe in the goodness of the man. I am sure he had his "black" moments but the gossips never got wind of them to tarnish his reputation.

  15. J.... H....

    Thought I knew every song by Neil. But found this one.

  16. M.... V....

    Een heel emotioneel lied, wat menig hart pijn doet, we maken het allemaal mee, ik kan niks anders zeggen als dit. Liefs marian

  17. R.... A....

    Qué recuerdos de estos añostan preciosos de mi vida 💞.

  18. C.... S....

    No tcb, He belongs to the whole world. We all love him

  19. I.... T....

    Maravilloso Neil eres genial ,con tu musica nos llega al corazon. Gracias por poder escucharte. El mejor Neil Diamond. Besos desde España .

  20. k.... s....

    A obscure Neil diamond classic he has so many

  21. c.... b....

    And who could have known we had flown from the way we were?? Once in a while??. Beautiful??
