Once In a While

It’s hard to find From time to time The strength to read between the lines Of all the things you say And what you do It’s hard to be What you want from me It’s hard to swing from the highest tree But I am climbing up the branches Just for you You never let me go, but never let me stay My heart’s a wreck from the games you play I’m torn apart by the things you hide First I lost my way and then I lost my pride… So look at me And perhaps you’ll see I’ve givin everything and still it isn’t me Who brightens up your day Or makes you smile So I’ll walk away It’s what I have to do And when I’m gone, all I ask of you Is try to think of me… Once in a while …Jeff Bresee
