Once In A While

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 That we only get 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 get you on your feet To walk that extra mile We only see 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 to 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 That we only get every once in a while Oh, how I miss him every once in a while --- Once in a While - Billy Dean
