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
