Only For A While

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Break]

Oh, you better remember, better remember
It's only for a while
Oh, yes, remember
It's only for a while, ooh...
