Lyrics

0:00From bad luck
0:03I'm walking away
0:07I'm not getting stuck
0:11I'm not gonna stay
0:15To good things
0:18I'm moving ahead
0:22I'm tired of dying
0:26I'm living instead
0:32Once in a while I wake up
0:38Wondering why we gave up
0:45But once in a while
0:49Comes and it fades away
0:56The sun's up and lighting the sky
1:03I never could see it
1:06It just passed me by
1:09Good things keep moving along
1:17I'm not looking backward
1:20For something that's gone
1:26Once in a while
1:29I'll wake up
1:33Wondering why we gave up
1:41But once and a while
1:44Comes and fades away
1:55I don't know what love is
1:58I'm selfish and lazy
2:01And when I get scared I can act like I'm crazy
2:09When I think of your kisses
2:13I'm still gonna smile
2:18I'm still gonna miss you
2:21Once in a while
2:58Once in a while
3:01I'll wake up
3:05Wondering why we gave up
3:12But once in a while
3:16Comes and it fades away
3:26Good things
3:29Keep moving ahead
3:32I'm tired of dying
3:37I'm living
3:41Instead
From bad luck
I'm walking away
I'm not getting stuck
I'm not gonna stay
To good things
I'm moving ahead
I'm tired of dying
I'm living instead
Once in a while I wake up
Wondering why we gave up
But once in a while
Comes and it fades away
The sun's up and lighting the sky
I never could see it
It just passed me by
Good things keep moving along
I'm not looking backward
For something that's gone
Once in a while
I'll wake up
Wondering why we gave up
But once and a while
Comes and fades away
I don't know what love is
I'm selfish and lazy
And when I get scared I can act like I'm crazy
When I think of your kisses
I'm still gonna smile
I'm still gonna miss you
Once in a while
Once in a while
I'll wake up
Wondering why we gave up
But once in a while
Comes and it fades away
Good things
Keep moving ahead
I'm tired of dying
I'm living
Instead
