Bobby Birdman - Only For A While lyrics

From the bank of the bed to the hospital I know why the cab is coming I can't see you From up the hill to the mouth of the river I know why the kid is crying I can't find you And-oh what a way to live I know what I could be here for and why I know what I want But only for a while And-oh what a way to live I know what I could be here for and why I know what I want But only for a while From the back of the room to the alter I know why the hand is shaken I can't hold you Top of the tree to the cradle of branches I know why the bow is breakin' Oh I need you And-oh what a way to live I know what I could be here for and why I know what I want But only for a while And-oh what a way to live I know what I could be here for and why I know what I want But only for a while And-oh what a way to live I know what I could be here for, and why I know what I want But only for a while
