Long misty days
Told me they would change their ways
Once in a while will come my way

The thrill is gone
Misty days linger on and on
Once in a while is here to stay

We feed desire
Lovers in a nursery rhyme
The words belonged to you
And the melody was mine

Long misty days
Taught me in a million ways
Once in a while will come my way

Oh, how the moon
Shining in a lonely room
Weeping willow cry for me

Sing me a song
Simple as the day is long
I love some cryin’ to be free

And take my sky
And tell me if the mood is blue
And if it's meant to be
Then my melody was used

Long misty days
Taught me in a million ways
Once in a while will come my way

Long misty days
Told me they would change their ways
Once in a while is here to stay
