For a little while
Let me believe
That your arms are around me
Because you want them to be
For a little while
Let me hold onto this
To what I can’t have
and what I will not give
For a little while
Let it be so
That whatever I dream
Will come true
For a little while
Let me feel happy
Because once you’ve gone
It’ll be just me
So For a little while
Just a little while
Let me hold you
Let me tell myself
That this is true
Because I will be here
And you will have gone
Back to lover you left
At your door
You're here as my friend
And nothing more
As my confidant
And nothing more.
And While you chose to comfort
My broken little heart
You broke it a little more
With your careless kindness
And so for a little while
Just a little while
Let me hold on to you
Before you leave me here
In my lonely solitude.
