Lyrics

For Awhile

Remember when the laughter rang a bright and golden tone.
The warmest sound we thought we?d every know.
A shinny copper penny in a silent wishing well,
The ripples, warm and growing, but colder winds were blowing,
And we wished we could escape the falling snow.

Chorus:
-------------------------------------------
But there?s just
Too many sins to be forgiven.
Too many lies to reconcile.
And though we can?t go on with life the way we?re livin?
I know we?ll both find another way to smile.
-------------------------------------------

Winter came and all our love seemed stronger as we grew
To understand each other more with time.
The mountaintops and all our dreams were there to dance upon.
We should have known by dancing,
Our spirits, would be chancing
The strength we needed later for the climb.

Repeat Chorus:

I?d love to say, ?I love you?, but we both know, who we are.
Two frightened people, barefoot, in the rain.
And all the lovers, all the lies speak louder, to explain,
Why all the words in passing
Seem fleeting ? never lasting
The empty eyes and empty hearts remain.

Last Chorus:
Still there?s just
Too many sins to be forgiven.
Too many lies to reconcile.
And though we can?t go on with life the way we?re livin?
At least we had each other, For Awhile.
Yeah, we were so damned happy, For Awhile
