Billy Dean - Only Here for a Little While lyrics

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

Whoa, 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
