"For A While" lyrics

"For A While"

Before I reach the sky above
I'll stretch my hands forever young
Catching the rain in the middle of a summer storm

There's a fire on 41
Sirens fading to a hum
The only escape takes me right back where I started from

Oh, life won't be here long
But heaven knows I've had it all
'Cause I was yours for a while
I was yours for a while

If I could let my demons go
If time could mend a broken soul
Maybe one day I could bring love to a world so cold

Oh, life won't be here long
And heaven knows what I'll become
But I was yours for a while
I was yours for a while
