David and the Bear Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
One little thought to me
Though someone else may be
Nearer your heart?
Once in a while will you dream
Of the moments I shared with you
Moments before we two
In love's smoldering ember
One spark may remain
If love still can remember
That spark may burn again
I know that I'll be contented
With yesterday's memory
Knowing you think of me
Once in a while
In love's smoldering ember
One spark may remain
If love still can remember
The spark may burn again
I know that I'll be contented
With yesterday's memory
Knowing you think of me
Once in a while

Once in a while will you try to give
Can you spare a thought for me every now and then?
One little thought to me
Even just a small memory or consideration would be enough
Though someone else may be
Even if someone else is closer to your heart
Nearer your heart?
Are you able to remember me fondly?
Once in a while will you dream
Do you ever think of me in your dreams?
Of the moments I shared with you
Do you have happy memories of when we were together?
Moments before we two
The times before we grew apart
Drifted apart?
When our connection started to weaken and fade away
In love's smoldering ember
Even when love is fading
One spark may remain
There might still be a glimmer of hope
If love still can remember
If the affection we had for each other can be recalled
That spark may burn again
There's a chance that love may reignite
I know that I'll be contented
I can accept the past and be at peace
With yesterday's memory
With the happy times we shared before
Knowing you think of me
Just the knowledge that you remember me is enough
Once in a while
Every now and then

but they can smell water 30Km away, so they always know, that you are there, so why tell them by being loud.
