Every Once In A While ( Lyrics ) Every once in a while, I see you around and it all seems real. It seems like yesterday, even far away...that our world stood still. Every once in a while, I think about...what we used to be. It seems like yesterday, even far away...that we used to see. ( Chorus ) Every once in a while, I see you around...but it's not the same. It seems like yesterday, even far away...that our world had changed. Every once in a while, I think about....what might have been. It seems like yesterday, even far away...that our love began. ( Chorus )
