Song Lyrics

Once in a while means never at all

I just passed by your house now baby
Oh yes I did
And I saw he was gone
Listen to me

Now I'm just around the corner baby
And I know you're wondering what I'm doing
I'm talking to you from a paid telephone
But here's what I want you to do

Will you meet me tonight
Just outside of town
We'll have to cry down baby
And go to your new place southbound

Once in a while is better baby
Oh yes it is
(Once in a while) is a whole lot better baby
Than never at all

If I can see you when I want it now baby
Then here's what I'll do
Then I'll just see you when I can
And if I can't be your full time lover now honey
Then I'll just be your part time babe

'Cause (Once in a while)
Once in a while, once in a while (Once in a while)
Is much better baby
I live alone sometimes baby
That's why I'm still here begging you today

Ohh
Come on and [?] away baby
I'll give you so much honey
Just don't keep me waiting baby
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you so much darling
And I just wanna see you once in a while in a while
Ohh (Once in a while is beter than never at all)

I just wanna see you darling
I love you so much baby
I need you baby
I got to have you right now baby
Why don't you slip away this evening baby?
