Song language: English
Only for a While |
For a little while, we know what heartache is |
And we feel the pain the world can sometimes bring |
For a little while, we cry in the night |
Without a single song to sing |
But one day it all will change |
There’ll be no more stormy rain |
Then at last we will rest forevermore |
So if you’re in the valley |
(if you’re in the valley now) |
And life is so unkind |
(life is so unkind) |
And if your tears keep falling |
(if your tears keep falling) |
From your tired eyes |
(from your eyes) |
If burdens seem so heavy |
(your burdens seem so heavy now) |
And it’s hard to smile |
(so hard to smile) |
Then just remember |
(you better remember) |
It’s only for a while |
For a little while, you lose someone you love |
And you miss the time together that you shared |
For a little while, you feel all alone and scared |
With no one there to hold |
Oh, the nights get long and cold |
But it won’t last, it will pass in time |
So if you’re in the valley |
(if you’re in the valley now) |
And life is so unkind |
(life is so unkind) |
And if your tears keep falling |
(if your tears keep falling) |
From your tired eyes |
(from your eyes) |
Your burdens seem so heavy |
(your burdens seem so heavy now) |
And it’s hard to smile |
(so hard to smile) |
Oh, you gotta remember |
(you gotta remember) |
It’s only for a while |
Oh, you better remember, better remember |
It’s only for a while |
Oh, yes, remember |
It’s only for a while, ooh… |
