Every Now And Then.

Sometimes love just slips away,
And sometimes it just slips,
It sure takes a loving heart,
To know how to forgive,
And there will often be those times,
When you just won’t fit in,
‘Cos love needs a little sacrifice,
Every now and then,

Yeah, every now and then, my baby,
Every now and then,
Love needs a little sacrifice,
Every now and then,

Sometimes we really give it a chance,
Hoping it will never end,
And sometimes we don’t give a damn,
And hide between our friends,
I hope we can make up our minds,
Without any help from them,
‘Cos love needs a little self advice,
Every now and then,

Yeah, every now and then, my baby,
Every now and then,
Love needs a little self advice,
Every now and then,

Sometimes we will understand,
And sometimes we won’t at all,
‘Cos sometimes love falls right in our hands,
And sometimes it just falls,
If we stumble once or twice,
Don’t think that it’s a sin,
‘Cos lovers have to pay a price,
Every now and then,

Yeah, every now and then, my baby,
Every now and then,
Lovers have to pay a price,
Every now and then,

And I think the gain is worth the loss,
Yeah, I think the pleasure’s worth the cost,
But there are times when I do not,
Every now and then.
