We build upon, soldiers in the ground
For a little while
For a little while
For a little while
You rest upon an island in July
For a little while
For a little while
For a little while

And if I tell you this, will you be laughing at me now
And if you steal a kiss, should I be grateful to you now

Well I burn my skin, looking into the sun
Hmmm
And it makes me smile
For a little while
For a little while
Makes me feel alive
For a little while
For a little while

I'm grinding meat, preparing for tonight
Thinking 'bout the cow
Thinking 'bout the cow
Thinking 'bout the cow
I go climb a tree, enjoying a new high
For a little while
For a little while
For a little while
And If I travel in time, back to a room that's very small
Then would you meet me there, would you care for me at all

Well I go through this, staring into the sun
Hmmm
And it makes me smile
For a little while
For a little while
Makes me feel alive
For a little while
For a little while

Oh for a little while
For a little while
For a little while
For a little while

We build upon, soldiers in the ground
For a little while
For a little while
For a little while
