For so long I was looking,
|
For a reason to make living worthwhile.
|
I found that reason,
|
When I first saw you smile.
|
There was no question you were the answer,
|
For a partner with no dancer or no song.
|
You set my life to music,
|
The day you came along.
|
|
And there for awhile,
|
All of my dreams came true.
|
There for awhile,
|
There was nothing I couldn't do.
|
Yes, there for awhile,
|
The future was finally clear.
|
'Cause there for awhile,
|
There for awhile, you were here.
|
|
I guess I never asked you,
|
Afraid of what the answer might be.
|
Would you love me forever,
|
Never wanting to be free?
|
I had no way of knowing,
|
Just how soon you'd be going away.
|
Would it have made a difference,
|
If only I'd asked you to stay.
|
|
Now I don't know,
|
What my life could hold for me.
|
'Cause I know that I had it all,
|
When you were holding me.
|
|
Yes, there for awhile,
|
The future was finally clear.
|
'Cause there for awhile,
|
There for awhile, you were here.
|
|
Yes, there for awhile,
|
There for awhile, you were here.
