Once in a while
|
Someone comes along
|
That one in a million heart
|
So pure and so strong
|
They can face up to the tears
|
And somehow still find a smile
|
We only get it
|
Every once in a while
|
|
Once in a while
|
Someone has the eyes
|
That one in a million look
|
That never tells lies.
|
They can take get you on your feet
|
To walk that extra mile
|
We only see it
|
Every once in a while
|
|
That's why we call them heroes
|
That's why we know their names
|
And once you've heard their stories
|
You're never quite the same
|
|
That's why we call them heroes
|
The best thing they ever do
|
Is point to the best in us all
|
And say, "If I can, you can too."
|
|
Once in a while
|
I still hear his voice
|
That one in a million sound
|
Like two laughin' boys
|
He would hate it if we cried
|
That never was his style
|
Oh, we still miss him
|
Every once in a while
|
|
Oh, they can face up to the tears
|
And somehow still find a smile
|
But we only get it
|
Every once in a while
|
|
Oh, how I miss him
|
Every once in a while
|
