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
