"Once In A While"

once in a while
someone comes along
that one in a million heart
so pure and so strong
they can face up to the tears
and somehow still find a smile
that we only get
every once in a while

once in a while
someone has the eyes
that one in a million look
that never tells lies
they can get you on your feet
to walk that extra mile
that we only see
every once in while

thats why we call them heroes
thats why we know their names
and once you heard their stories
your never quite the same

thats why we call them heroes
the best thing they ever do
is point to the best in us all
and say if i can you can too

once in a while
i still hear his voice
that one in a million sound
like two laughing boys
he would hated if we cried
that never was his style

oh we still miss him
every once in a while

oooh they can face up to the tears
and some how still find a smile
that we only get
every once in a while

oh how i miss him
every once in a while
