Once In A While

Madeleine Peyroux

From bad luck
I'm walking away
I'm not getting stuck
I'm not gonna stay
To good things
I'm moving ahead
I'm tired of dying
I'm living insteadOnce in a while I'll wake up
Wondering why we gave up
But once in a while
Comes and it fades awayThe sun's up and lighting the sky
I never could see it
It just passed me by
Good things keep moving along
I'm not looking backward
For something that's goneOnce in a while I'll wake up
Wondering why we gave up
But once and a while
Comes and fades awayI don't know what love is
I'm selfish and lazy
And when I get scared
I can act like I'm crazyWhen I think of your kisses
I'm still gonna smile
I'm still gonna miss you
Once in a while
Once in a whileOnce in a while I'll wake up
Wondering why we gave up
But once in a while
Comes and it fades awayGood things keep moving ahead
I'm tired of dying
I'm living instead
