Lyrics

VERSE
Just holdin’ on to holdin’ on
Is now where I find myself
You were here, then you were gone
I can think of little else
I thought we shared the kind of love
With no beginning and no end
But I guess it was not enough
I’ve lost my lover, my very best friend

CHORUS
Now I’m bidin’ my time, waitin’ in line
Lookin’ for a love to count on
Needin’ a sign, let the lovelight shine
All around, on the roam
Simply devine, by grand design
You were there at the dawn
And for a time, baby, oh, you were mine

SOLO/VERSE
The love I feel inside for you
Rages out of control
But now, it seems, all I can do
Have mercy on my soul
Is find a way to ease my mind
Let this pain inside me go
Back in line, leavin’ love behind
In the world I used to know

Repeat CHORUS/SOLO/Repeat last three lines of CHORUS/TAG
Yes, you were mine, but just for a time
