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
