Lyric

Once in a Thousand Days

aoneco

Spring wind on your hair, I remember that scene

Like a frame that the world never meant to delete

You waved once, now it loops in my mind on repeat

Some moments don’t fade, they just change what they mean

I been saving small days in invisible jars

Little laughs, quiet walks, conversations in cars

Nothing special at the time, now they glow like a star

Funny how the ordinary’s never really that far

Chewing time like gum till the flavor ran thin

Spit it out at night but it stuck to my skin

Every boring hour that I thought I should skip

Turned gold in the dark when I replay the clip

I was chasing forever, didn’t see it was here

In the tremble of your voice when you whispered my name near

Thought eternity loud, thought it had to be grand

But it lives in soft seconds you hold in your hand

I kept it hidden deep

Answer I knew since a kid in me

Time didn’t change it, it just made it clear

Some days don’t pass — they stay right here

This day feels like a dream I can’t erase

Like a once-in-a-thousand-days kind of place

If forever exists, it’s not far away

It’s the moment I’m in and the words you say

City lights blur like they’re melting in rain

Every street got a ghost of your step in its lane

I don’t chase yesterday, I just let it remain

Like a song that still hums when you cut off the gain

Used to think meaning had to shout to be true

Now I hear it in silence when I’m thinking of you

Every long lonely night that I wanted to end

Now I’d freeze it in glass just to feel it again

Funny thing ’bout time — it don’t listen to pleas

But it secretly saves all the seconds we breathe

So I’m living this minute like it’s rare as it gets

Like the universe paused just to watch us exist

This night feels like a dream I can’t erase

Like a once-in-a-thousand-days kind of place

If forever exists, it’s not far away

It’s the moment I’m in and the words you say

Not tomorrow, not then, not someday soon

Forever isn’t time — it’s a room

And right now

I’m in it with you
