Every Once In a While

Hey
What's the big idea?
Come on now
Dont leave me standing here
I'm just watching
All the clouds go by
Just like clock hands
On the face of the sky

Every once in a while
Everything comes together
Every once in a while
Everything turns out right

Hey
As a matter of fact
Like a lost child
At the vanishing act
I'm just watching
My future take flight
Just like black holes
In the wings of the night

Everybody
Only gets lucky
Sometimes
Everybody
Is always
Changing sides

So you'd be wisе
To know your enemy
Soon they'll bе moving in
Next door
They'll come to show you
To your destiny
And they won't be
Empty handed
Anymore

Hey
Its like a one man show
Everybody's in, there's
Nobody to go
I'm just watching all the
Tables turn
Just like smoke rings
From a slash and burn

Every once in a while
Everything goes to pieces
Every once in a while
Everything must divide

Hey
Why, you're acting so
Strange
It's all just static
I must be out of range
I'm just watching
My reality bend
Just like wild flowers
At the season's end

Won't somebody
Tell me everything's
Gonna be fine
Won't somebody
Tell my everything'll
Be alright

Cause I can't take
Too much more of this
I could never stand it
Anyway
I guess it's easy to
Afford
All the risk
When you're not the one
That's gonna
Have to pay
