Gonna hold who needs holdin´
Mend what needs mendin´
Walk what needs walkin´
Though it means an extra mile
Pray what needs prayin´

Say what needs sayin´
Cause we´re only here for a little while

Today I stood singin´ songs and sayin´ Amen
Saying goodbye to an old friend who seemed so young
He spent his life workin´ hard to chase a dollar
Putting off until tomorrow the things he should have done
Made me start thinking "What´s the hurry, why the runnin´?
I don´t like what I´m becoming, gonna change my style
Take my time and I take it all for granted "
Cause we´re only here for a little while

Gonna hold who needs holdin´
Mend what needs mendin´

Walk what needs walkin´
Though it means an extra mile
Pray what needs prayin´
Say what needs sayin´
Cause we´re only here for a little while

Let me love like I´ll never see tomorrow
Treat each day as though it´s borrowed
Like it´s precious as a child
Whoa, take my hand
Let us reach out to each other
Cause we´re only here for a little while

Gonna hold who needs holdin´
Mend what needs mendin´
Walk what needs walkin´
Though it means an extra mile
Pray what needs prayin´

Say what needs sayin´
Cause we´re only here for a little while

Gonna hold who needs holdin´
Mend what needs mendin´
Walk what needs walkin´
Though it means an extra mile
Pray what needs prayin´
Say what needs sayin´
Cause we´re only here for a little while
