Once in a While
Lang K.D. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

In love comes waltzing in
And gives my head a spin
With the answers backing one
Whose world turns upside down
Shattering the ground
Other expectations

Love beyond reason, is a love so hard to find
And love that can season you, make your heart a one tract mind
I will make you happy baby
I will make you smile
I?ll drive you crazy baby
Once, in awhile

Once, in awhile

(Ohhhhh)
Love beyond reason, is a love so hard to find
(Ohhhhh)
Love that can season you, make your heart a one tract mind
I will make you happy baby
I will make you smile
I will drive you crazy, baby
Once, in a while
Baby once, in a while





Once, in awhile
