Once In A While - Udo Jürgens

Ridin' home, joins the rush

Still alive, but only just

Feeds the boys, cleans the house

Picks up toys, she`s so worn out

Never has time to spare

Fix her make up, comb her hair

It`s a race chasing time

Wants to leave the world behind

Once in a while she slips out

(Slip, slip, slip away)

Once in a while she’s free

(Oh yeah)

Into the night — she takes her delight

Lives fantasies — she had as a child

Once in a while she slips out

(Slip, slip, slip away)

Once in a while she’s free

(Oh yeah)

Into the night — she takes her delight

Lives fantasies — she had as a child

Kicking back, breaking rules

She don’t care which way she falls

Lives all night, once a year

Letting someone know she’s here

Cuts her speed, ease on down

Lets her fingers, feel the ground

Changes gear, kills the drive

Back to work, it’s nine to five

Once in a while she slips out

(Slip, slip, slip away)

Once in a while she’s free

(Oh yeah)

Into the night — she takes her delight

Lives fantasies — she had as a child

Once in a while she slips out

(Slip, slip, slip away)

Once in a while she’s free

(Oh yeah)

Into the night — she takes her delight

Lives fantasies — she had as a child

Once in a while she slips out
