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
