Once In A While [Smile]

I put myself in a box
I did it just because I feel dead and alive
So maybe you can decide what I'm supposed to feel
Did I skip a beat? Did I fall between the lines?

When the crown's red and brown, the leaves are hanging on
Like we're all hanging on to nothing but a letdown
Am I supposed to dream just a little dream when it's coming down
Hard on me?

Ooh, but when we smile, we smile together
See the sun, once in a while
Ooh, and all the clouds, they will disperse
All at once, once in a while

Let's decide we're okay, so I don't have to change
Keep it in, staying out
So I don't need to figure out what I'm supposed to do
If I had to choose, then I'd stay a fool
A fool for you

Ooh, 'cause when we smile, we smile together
See the sun, once in a while
Ooh, and all the clouds, they will disperse
All at once, once in a while

Once in a while, ooh
Once in a while
