Lyrics:
Something's wrong with your sunny disposition
Tried to take a pill but it made me Ill don't know what to do, you?
Well doctors note just because of your condition
You better get a nurse cause you're getting worse
Ready for rehearse if you won't listen to me

Every now and then
When you go away
I want you back again
Every now and then

Gets so lonesome too just because of you
Every now and then
Oh, gee if you would only spend

Time enough to telephone a lonely friend
Then you wouldn't be just a memory
Like you are to me
Every now and then

And when the birdies in the spring
Start to chirp and sing

It doesn't mean a thing
You know the song I wanna sing
Is the sweeter thing about a wedding ring

And you always ask me all the time
All about a lot of wedding bells that chime
I will make your mind
Then you can't pretend that I'm just a friend
Every now and then

Every now and then
When you go away
I want you back again
Every now and then
Gets so lonely too
Every now and then

If you'd only spend
Time enough to telephone a lonely friend
Then you won't be just a memory
Like you were to me
Every now and then

And when the birdies in the spring
Start to chirp and sing
Doesn't mean a thing

You know the song I wanna sing
Is a sweeter thing about a wedding ring

You always ask me all the time
All about a lot of wedding bells that chime
I will make you mine

Then you can't pretend I'm just a friend
Every now and then
