Lyrics
Lyrics:
Once in awhile I am just human, With a heart that throbs and aches! Once in awhile I meet a true man, Who lives for honor's sake! Once in awhile I seem to remember, Things said to me at tryst; Once in awhile in sweet September, Once in awhile, awhile. Once in awhile, his dear eyes shining, Into my own as bright as starts; Once in awhile, For you I am pining For you I'd go to war. Once in awhile he'll say I love you, Whispering low at the close of day, Once in while, I hope it's true, dear, Once in awhile, awhile.
