Once in a While
Embers of Love: A Glimpse into Longing and Memories
Lyrics
Once in a while will you try to give
Requesting occasional consideration or attention
One little thought to me
Asking for a small amount of thought or regard
Though someone else may be
Acknowledging the possibility of someone else being closer emotionally
Nearer your heart?
Questioning if someone else is nearer to your heart
Once in a while will you dream
Expressing a desire for occasional dreams about shared moments
Of the moments I shared with you
Recalling past moments shared together
Moments before we two
Referring to moments before the relationship drifted apart
Drifted apart?
Addressing the separation between the two individuals
In love's smoldering ember
Describing love's remaining, though fading, warmth
One spark may remain
Suggesting the potential for a small spark to endure
If love still can remember
Exploring the idea that love might remember the past
That spark may burn again
Believing that the remembered spark could reignite
I know that I'll be contented
Expressing contentment with memories from the past
With yesterday's memory
Being satisfied with the recollection of previous moments
Knowing you think of me
Noting the importance of knowing that you are thought of
Once in a while
Reiterating the request for occasional consideration
In love's smoldering ember
Recalling the fading warmth of love
One spark may remain
Suggesting the possibility of a remaining spark
If love still can remember
Reiterating the idea that love may recall the past
The spark may burn again
Rekindling hope that the remembered spark can reignite
I know that I'll be contented
Reaffirming contentment with past memories
With yesterday's memory
Being satisfied with the thought of being remembered
Knowing you think of me
Highlighting the importance of being thought of occasionally
Once in a while
Repeating the request for intermittent consideration
