Every Now and Then
Whispers of Longing: REO Speedwagon's Every Now and Then
Lyrics
Every now and then when the lights are low
Reflecting on past moments when the atmosphere is subdued.
Every now and then when the wind does blow
Occasional thoughts triggered by the movement of the wind.
Every now and then, I think of you
Nostalgia and contemplation about someone special at intervals.
Every now and then when a girl walks by
Recollection prompted by the presence of a woman passing by.
And holds her head like you held yours high
Comparing a passerby's demeanor to the memory of a significant person.
Every now and then, I think of you
Ongoing reflections and thoughts about the same person.
And once in awhile when the sun sets right
Infrequent moments when the natural beauty aligns, triggering memories.
And the full moon glides like a diamond in the night
Describing a picturesque evening with a shining full moon.
Every now and then, I think of you
Continued reminiscence during moments of beauty in the environment.
And I remember you and I
Recalling shared memories with a significant person.
In a soft golden light
Evoking a positive image of the past, bathed in warm golden light.
Nothing like here and tonight
Highlighting the uniqueness of their connection compared to the present.
I won't hear about anyone's life but our own
Expressing a desire to focus only on their shared life and not others.
And all that I have is hope
The predominant feeling being one of hope despite challenges.
Baby you never know
Acknowledging the uncertainty inherent in relationships.
Every now and then when a friend says, hi
Triggered emotions when encountering inquiries from friends.
And asks about us I just want to die
Intense emotional reaction to questions about the relationship.
Every now and then, I think of you
Continued thoughts and reflections about the person in question.
I want to say everything's just fine
A desire to present a positive image despite internal struggles.
But only a fool could believe that line
Expressing skepticism about conveying everything is fine.
Still every now and then, I think of you
Despite challenges, periodic thoughts and memories persist.
