Once In A Great While Lyrics - In Memory Of Loss - Nathaniel Rateliff

We could bail out either side, or take a rest 

Find me in the corner with your nervous laugh 

In my hesitation don't you pass 

I might be the only fool who cares 

But don't you feel like you're under this wave (of staggering charm?) 

One was set to carry you, and never came 

I was laying hungry but surprised to be 

But I sure love the way that you lingered here (/linger dear?) 

Once in a great while I could be (so bright? /right) 

And more than I can say it just feels awfully right 

(And borrowing every angle 'till it's centered in 'I'?) 

Don't be so bashful 

It's me in the shadows 

And I'm laying, groaning 

Until you find a way back to me 

Until you find a way to soothe me 

Well tell me, it's starlight 

It's stars in your eyes 

ooh...
