Every once in a while I think about you   And your strawberry hair    And little things that we used to do   I even called your old number   But it wasn't the same   Some stranger's voice on the answering machine      But the feelings remain after all this time   And those old memories won't fade    From the back of my mind      When I hear an old song    And I'm with you again   In that one room apartment    We had time and we had plans   But plans fall through   And dreams run dry   Oh, they just slowly disappear    Like an old teardrop from your eye      But the feelings remain after all this time   And those old memories won't fade    From the back of my mind      I don't know if I love you   Only think of you once in a while      But the feelings remain after all this time   And those memories won't fade    From the back of my mind      Every once in a while I can see you cry   And I'm saying I'm not ready and I can't say why    I hear you got married and had a beautiful child   And I only think about you once in a while
