Every now and then I get a little wrapped up in myself
and I cant see you reaching
Every now and then I get a little overwelmed by the world,
and I cant hear you calling

You have always tought me
that you'd always be there
You are only one prayer away

Chorus
Every now and then you whisper peace to me
With your tender words unexpectedly
When Im at the end taking my last breath
Drowning in my pride
I've got nothing left
Oh, but I can see you coming around the vail
Yea, you take me to that place again

Every now and then I get a little tired of my reflection and,
I want to break the mirror
Every now and then i get alined by my own preseption,
and I need to see you clearer

But you have always tought me
that you'd be there
you are only one prayer away

Chorus (x2)

Every now and then
Oh, and i can see you coming around the vail
Yea, you find me in that place again
Every now and then

It's the mood I'm in it's how hard it's been the ultimate sin
Don't want to commit - but I think of it every now and then.

Could give love a try could give god a try much easier just to
Say bye bye - and I think of it every now and then.

When you're getting down you got to get up. When you're
Getting down, you got to get up up up.

Highest of the high two pies in the sky it could be all mine just
A matter of time - but I think of it every now and then.

Guess I could forget could remember when could discover it
But how hard it's been

Every now and then I got out with a friend or two
And have a few rounds
I make it home by ten, but I remember when
I used to close that place down
The whiskey and the smoke and a couple tasteless jokes
Don't taste the way they did
I just do it every now and then to remind myself why
I just do it every now and then

And every now and then I surrender to a whim
My wheels wind up west of town
And I turn down that street that just turns out to be
A road I shouldn't go back down
All those memories they've turned to ghosts and weeds
I dont' wanna hurt like that again
I just do it every now and then to remind myself why
I just do it every now and then

(Chorus)
Sometimes I forget why things in my past
Are things in my past
Sometimes to see clear why I left there for here
I gotta take a step back

Every now and then I spend a minute with the man
I was till I loved you
And I walk those empty miles, reminisce and reconcile
And I smile at the me you never knew
He's good for a good laugh, but anything beyond that
I don't wanna relive
I just do it every now and then to remind myself why
I just do it every now and then

(Repeat Chorus)

Every now and then I go out with a friend or two

It's the mood I'm in it's how hard it's been the ultimate sin
Don't want to commit - but I think of it every now and then.

Could give love a try could give god a try much easier just to
Say bye bye - and I think of it every now and then.

When you're getting down you got to get up. When you're
Getting down, you got to get up up up.

Highest of the high two pies in the sky it could be all mine just
A matter of time - but I think of it every now and then.

Guess I could forget could remember when could discover it
But how hard it's been

Every now and then
I get a feeling
That I've left something behind me
But I don't know what it is yet.

Like I tied a piece of string
Round my finger
And I hope this will remind me
Of the places I have been through.

When I'm down, down, down
When I'm down, down, down.

Every now and then
When I'm feeling lonely
I turn on my radio
Because I'm hoping that you're out there.

It seems so long ago
I would see your writing
On a postcard or a note
And your stories would excite me.

When I was down, down, down
When I'm down, down, down.

Wherever you stop along the way
I hope the wind blows you
Back into my life
At the end of the road
And if I'm only dreaming
Then won't you tear the curtains down
And let the light back into this empty room ?

Kissing in your room
Climbing out the window
Trying not to make a sound, but
With my first love on my mind.

You see, we were never through
I never said I loved you
Even when we said goodbye
Never thought it was the last time.

Down, down, down
And I'm down, down, down.

Wherever you stop along the way
I hope the wind'll blow you
Back into my life
At the end of the road
And still, every now and then I hear a voice
Singing to me softly
Deep inside my head
And it sings till I fall asleep
If I'm only dreaming
Won't someone tear the curtains down ?
Tear the curtains down.

Every now and then
I get a feeling
It's like I've left something behind
But I don't know what it is yet.

Every now and then
When you're feeling lonesome
Just sing this melody
And remember where going.

When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down, down
When you're down, down, down, down, down.

I walked down to the park last night
Warm breeze stirring up a soft moonlight
And my mind started drifting to way back when
Yes I do think about you every now and then

The other day I saw a car like you used to drive
I got a funny feeling down deep inside
And for the briefest moment I felt a smile begin
Yes I do think about you every now and then

(chorus)
I love my life and Id never trade
Between what you and me had and the life I've made
Shes here and shes real, but you were too
And every once in awhile I think about you

I heard a song on the radio just yesterday
The same one you always asked me to play
And when the song was over
I wished theyd played it again
Yes I do think about you every now and then

(chours)

I've been layin' here all night listenin' to the rain
Talkin to my heart tryin to explain
Why sometimes I catch myself
Wondering what might have been
Yes I do think about you every now and then

Every now and then
Every now and then

Every now and then
I get a feeling
Like I've left something behind me
But I don't know what it is yet

Like I tied a piece of string
Round my finger
And I hope this will remind me
Of the places I have been through

When I'm down, down, down
When I'm down, down, down

Every now and then
When I'm feeling lonely
I turn on my radio
Because I'm hoping that you're out there

It seems so long ago
I would see your writing
On a postcard or a note
And your stories would excite me

When I was down, down, down
When I'm down, down, down

Wherever you stop along the way
I hope the wind blows you
Back into my life
At the end of the road
And if I'm only dreaming
Then won't you tear the curtains down
And let the light back into this empty room?

Kissing in your room
Climbing out the window
Trying not to make a sound, but
With my first love on my mind

You see, we were never through
I never said I loved you
Even when we said goodbye
I never thought it was the last time

Down, down, down
And I'm down, down, down

Wherever you step along the way
I hope that the wind'll blow you
Right back into my life
At the end of the road
Still, every now and then I hear a voice
Singing to me softly
Deep inside my head
And it sings till I fall asleep
If I'm only dreaming
Won't someone tear the curtains down?
Tear the curtains down

Every now and then
I get a feeling
It's like I've left something behind
But I don't know what it is yet

Every now and then
When you're feeling lonesome
Just sing this melody
And remember where you're goin'

When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down
When you're down, down, down, down
When you're down, down, down, down, down
And I'm sayin' oh, oh, oh
When you're down, down, down
