Occasionally

I haven't wished it to be true for quite some time
I often sleep without waking in the night
But occasionally, you cross my mind
Sing hallelujah in the morning when I rise
And keep it with me every moment passing by

Then occasionally, you cross my mind
Like a snake, you wait
In tall grass and vine, you hide away your face
Out of reach, your vision comes to me
And suddenly, you'll cross my mind
So go away, back to where you came from
Tell me, why today?

I can't erase where it all begins
That moment when you cross my mind
So I'll be free of you for more than a little while
Draw back the curtains, and I'll welcome in the light
I'll carry on day after day
Go on believing I am doing fine
Then suddenly, you'll cross my mind
Occasionally, you cross my mind
