For A Little While

Hot sun dancin' on the river

We're sittin' on the bank

And watch the world go by

Our feet in the water

She pressed her lips to mine

We were so long on love

But short on time

She could be a honeymoon sweet

And a little wild

She was mine oh

For a little while

And I laugh everytime

I start to think about us

We sent that summer out in style

And she's gone

But she left me with a smile

'Cause she was mine

For a little while

We'd take a ride and head on

Down to Airport Road

Put the seats back

Watch the planes leave town

She always said nobody's strong

Enough to tie her down

Oh but I wasn't lookin'

For that anyhow

I knew she'd leave

But I didn't know when

It matters to me now oh

But it didn't back then

And I laugh everytime

I start to think about us

We sent that summer out in style

And she's gone

But she left me with a smile

'Cause she was mine

For a little while

I keep seein' pictures now of me

And her and those summer nights

My mind fills with her

Oh but it's alright

'Cause I laugh everytime

I start to think about us

We sent that summer out in style

And she's gone

But she left me with a smile

'Cause she was mine yes

She was mine oh for a little while
