Ours for a Little While

Ours for a Little While

Dana Cooper & Elva Jones-Hahn

You been on my mind

Yes every day I think about you countless times

Love is funny stuff

Just when my heart starts feeling tender things get rough

Every thing we think we own we borrow

This moment is so precious only

Ours for a little while

Ours for a little while

Home, you come back home

When every dream is spurned and your heart turned to stone

Fire, your life's on fire

You try to burn it out but you keep shining brighter

Every thing we think we know is borrowed

These moments are so precious only

Ours for a little while

Ours for a little while

Let's keep it safe, let's make this count

Let's give our love here and now

Years after we're gone

Someone like us will fight for love and carry on

Time is but a song

Every note that disappears is never gone

Every tune we sing is only borrowed

Every song so precious only

Ours for a little while

Ours for a little while

Let's keep it safe, let's make this count

Let's give our love here and now
