Only Here For A Little While

I'm 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
 Oh, 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
