Lyrics Marvin Gaye

Marvin Gaye

Every Now And Then

Darling, why did I agree to ever let you go?

And why did I promise I'd never try to see you no more?

I thought I could find someone to take your place

Instead I find memories of you so hard to erase

'Cause every now and then

Someone speaks your name

Every now and then

I feel the flame

Same old burning

Burning deep within

To a dream I'm holding on

And all the time I know you're gone

Some times I sit alone and stare into the night

And in my mind I see myself holding you tight

Seems the love I feel is stronger than my will

Trapped in a world of despair

I close my eyes and pretend you're there

'Cause every now and then

I hear your voice calling

Every now and then

Girl, my tears start falling

Darling, beyond my control

I miss the mess of your touch

I miss the love I need so much

Every now and then

Every now and then

I keep remembering

Won't you come back baby

It's so hard living without you

Why don't you come back, baby

I miss everything about you

Why don't you come back

My whole world is crumbling

Why don't you come back

Every step I take without you, I'm stumbling

'Cause every now and then

I feel the hurt inside

Every now and then

I get you on my mind

Of fools of thinking I get over you

And every street I'm coming down

I see you all around

'Cause every now and then

Every now and then

I feel the flame burning

I feel my heart yarning

Every now and then

Oh I miss your touch

Every now and then
