Once in a While
Whispers of Love: A Reflection on Unforgettable Moments
Lyrics
Once in a while will you try to give
Asking if, occasionally, you could make an effort to consider
One little thought to me
Requesting a small amount of attention or consideration from you
Though someone else may be
Even though there might be someone else who is closer to your heart
Nearer your heart?
Questioning the proximity of someone else to your emotions
Once in a while will you dream
Asking if, from time to time, you would think about
Of the moments I shared with you
Reflecting on the moments that were shared between us
Moments before we two
Recalling moments that occurred before our separation
Drifted apart?
Acknowledging the drifting apart that happened between us
In love's smoldering ember
Referring to the residual warmth or feeling in a fading love
One spark may remain
Expressing that a small flame of love may still exist
If love still can remember
Suggesting that love, if it remembers, has the potential to rekindle
That spark may burn again
Highlighting the possibility of love reigniting under certain conditions
I know that I'll be contented
Asserting personal satisfaction with memories from the past
With yesterday's memory
Being content with memories of the days gone by
Knowing you think of me
Acknowledging the importance of being in your thoughts
Once in a while
Reiterating the hope for occasional consideration or remembrance
In love's smoldering ember
Repeating the idea of a lingering warmth or emotion in love
One spark may remain
Reemphasizing the possibility of a remaining spark in love
If love still can remember
Restating the idea that love, if it recalls, can reignite
The spark may burn again
Highlighting the potential for a renewed flame in love
I know that I'll be contented
Reiterating personal contentment with memories from the past
With yesterday's memory
Expressing satisfaction with the recollection of past experiences
Knowing you think of me
Emphasizing the importance of being in your thoughts occasionally
Once in a while
Repeating the desire for occasional remembrance or consideration
