Every Now and Then Lyrics

Darling, why did I agree to ever let you go?
And why did I promise I'd never try to see you no more?
I thought I could find someone to take your place
Instead, I find memories of you so hard to erase

'Cause every now and then, someone speaks your name
Every now and then, I feel the flame
Same old burning, burning deep within
To a dream I'm holding on
And all the time I know you're gone

Sometimes I sit alone and stare into the night
And in my mind I see myself holding you tight
It seems the love I feel is stronger than my will
Trapped in a world of despair
I close my eyes and pretend you're there

But every now and then, I hear your voice calling
Every now and then, girl, my tears start falling
Darling, beyond my control
I miss the magic of your touch
I miss the love I need so much

I keep remembering (every now and then, every now and then)
I keep remembering (I keep remembering)

Why don't you come back baby?
It's so hard living without you
Why don't you come back baby
I miss everything about you (why don't you come back)
My whole world is crumbling (why don't you come back)
Each step I take without you, I'm stumbling

'Cause every now and then, I feel the hurt inside
Every now and then, I get you on my mind
A fool was I to think I get over you
On every street, I'm coming down
Memories of you are all around

'Cause every now and then
Every now and then, I feel that flame burning
I feel my heart yearning
Every now and then, oh, I miss your touch
Every now and then
