Only Here For A Little While lyrics
Songwriters: Holyfield, W; Leigh, R;

I m gonna hold who needs holdin
Mend what needs mendin
Walk what needs walkin
Though it means an extra mile

Pray what needs prayin
Say what needs sayin
Cause we re only here
For a little while

Today I stood singin songs and sayin , Amen
Saying goodbye to an old friend who seemed so young
He spent his life workin hard to chase a dollar
Putting off until tomorrow the things he should have done

Made me start thinking, "What s the hurry, why the runnin ?
I don t like what I m becoming, gonna change my style
Take my time and I take it all for granted
Cause we re only here for a little while"

Gonna hold who needs holdin
Mend what needs mendin
Walk what needs walkin
Though it means an extra mile

Pray what needs prayin
Say what needs sayin
Cause we re only here
For a little while

Let me love like I ll never see tomorrow
Treat each day as though it s borrowed
Like it s precious as a child

Oh, take my hand
Let us reach out to each other
Cause we re only here for a little while

Gonna hold who needs holdin
Mend what needs mendin
Walk what needs walkin
Though it means an extra mile

Pray what needs prayin
Say what needs sayin
Cause we re only here
For a little while

Gonna hold who needs holdin
Mend what needs mendin
Walk what needs walkin
Though it means an extra mile

Pray what needs prayin
Say what needs sayin
Cause we re only here
For a little while
