Only for a While

When nothing breaks your fall but the cold, hard ground
And you're hurting in your soul and nobody's around
Do you think of me?
Do you think of me?

When you're searching in the dark and you can't find the light
And you need someone just to hold you tight

Do you wait for me?
Do you wait for me?

You were there when I was up in the sky
When I was down in the dust, you gave me a smile
that said "This ain't nothin', it's just for a while.
Only for a while."

When it rains so hard that you're soaked to the bone
And you shiver inside, 'cause you're cold as a stone
Will you call on me?
You can call on me.

You were there when I was out of my mind
When I could find nothing to say that was kind,
You said, "This is easy; it's just for a while.
Only for a while."

Only for a while.
