Once In A WhileTommy DorseyWritten by Michael Edwards and Bud GreenPeaked at # 1 for 7 weeks in 1937Competing version charted by Horace Heidt (#2)Charted again in 1938 by Louis Armstrong (# 15)Charted again in 1952 by Doris Day (#9)Charted in 1961 as "Once In Awhile" by The Chimes at #11Once in a while will you try to give one little thought to meThough someone else maybe nearer your heartOnce in a while will you dream of the moments I shared with you, Moments before we two drifted apart. In love's smoldering ember, one spark may remain, If love still can remember the spark may burn again.I know that I'll be contented with yesterday's memory, Knowing you think of me once in a while.
