She was a sometimes love
 An every-now-and-then touch
 That momentarily
 Brought out the best in me
 I didn't think that much of it
 My heart can easily love it or leave it
 Told myself I didn't need it
 And years have gone by
 She's moved on, so have I
 Or have I?
 That part of my life
 That chapter I thought I'd closed
 I close my eyes, but she's not gone
 Oh, why am I still holding on?
 Sometimes, love hangs around a little too long
 I never thought a thing about the things I said to her
 And her to me
 Love was just a word and all our promises we never meant to keep
 Or so I thought
 She was a sometimes love
 But sometimes, love hangs around a little too long
 And years have gone by
 She's moved on, so have I
 Or have I?
 That part of my life
 That chapter I thought I'd closed
 I close my eyes, but she's not gone
 Oh, why am I still holding on?
 She was a sometimes love
 But sometimes, love hangs around a little too long
 Sometimes, love hangs around a little too long
