There For Awhile - Steve Wariner

For so long I was looking

For a reason to make living worthwhile

I found that reason

When I first saw you smile

There was no question you were the answer

For a partner with no dancer or no song

You set my life to music

The day you came along

And there for awhile

All of my dreams came true

There for awhile

There was nothing I couldn’t do

Yes, there for awhile

The future was finally clear

'Cause there for awhile

There for awhile, you were here

I guess I never asked you

Afraid of what the answer might be

Would you love me forever

Never wanting to be free?

I had no way of knowing

Just how soon you’d be going away

Would it have made a difference

If only I’d asked you to stay

Now I don’t know

What my life could hold for me

'Cause I know that I had it all

When you were holding me

Yes, there for awhile

The future was finally clear

'Cause there for awhile

There for awhile, you were here

Yes, there for awhile

There for awhile, you were here
