Once a Day
Dean Martin · Lay Some Happiness On Me: The Reprise Years (Repri [2002]
(Bill Anderson)
(Once a day, every day, all day long.)
When I found somebody new I thought I never would
Forget you for I thought then I never could
But time has taken all the pain away
Until now I'm down to hurtin' once a day.
Oh, once a day, all day long
And once a night from dusk till dawn
The only time I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day, every day, all day long.
--- Instrumental ---
(Once a day, every day, all day long.)
I'm so glad that I'm not like a friend I knew one time
He lost the one he loved then slowly lost his mind
He sat around and cried his life away
Well lucky me I'm only crying once a day.
Oh once a day, all day long
And once a night from dusk till dawn
The only time I wish you weren't gone
Is once a day, every day, all day long.
Is once a day, every day, all day long...
(Once a day, every day, all day long.)

The only time I wish you weren't gone
