Quiet Blue - For a While Lyrics

Home in this town
Where you thought you would grow up
And it was only a stepping stone
At the start of the river

Find where you feel
There is something to offer
And stay for a while
Or at least for a day or two

I'm held up here
And I see where I'm going
Not where I am bound
I'm held up here
And it was over too quickly
Nothing came around
I'm held up here
For a while now
For a while now

And it was different
But nothing changed in my view
Just the sun rose over the city
And all the blues and the blacks
Were polished new in their tracks
Without fear of moments leaving

Cause you'll be stronger in a moment
You'll be better in your life
And you'll be knowing all the secrets
And you'll be telling all the lies
So just stay for a while
Or at least for a day or two

I'm held up here
And I see where I'm going
Not where I am bound
I'm held up here
And it was over too quickly
Nothing came around
I'm held up here
For a while now

You feel a little better
But its always on your mind
And you know it's getting closer
And its taking up your time
But you thought a little over
And you figure its alright
Doing nothing for a while
Doing nothing for a while
