Once in a while she looks out of the window
staring at the wide open, she dreams of a land

Once in a while she travels to those places
walking bare-footed through the stiff lanes

Once in a while, she reads tracing its history
writing stories and tales of her longings

Once in a while, she wishes he would pay her a visit
spreading his wings, taking a flight

Once in a while, she looks through her camera
capturing life as it was in photography

Once in a while, she closes her eyes and hears him
saying 'weight of worries is too heavy, calm down'

Once in a while, she believes life can still be beautiful
as walking up the hills, she disappears in the cloud.
