paroles de chanson Just for a While - Jennifer Holliday

How much can a woman take?
How much pain before a heart can break?
I placed my life into your hands,
But now, I've got to change my plans.

Just for a while,
I'm going to hold back my tears,
Open my ears to my heart;
And baby, just for a while,
I'm going to be someone strong,
Keep walking on without you.
That's what I'll do.

How much can woman cry?
What does it take before she sees the light?
My body was weak for your touch,
But now, it hurts too much.

Baby, just for a while,
I'm going to hold back my tears,
Open my ears to my heart;
And baby, just for a while,
I'm going to be someone strong,
Keep walking on without you.
That's what I'll do.

I thought being second was how it should be.
It took me losing you to find me.
I'm better off all by myself
Than living with you in a shell.

Just for a little while,
I'm going to hold back my tears,
Open my ears to my heart;
And baby, just for a little while,
I'm going to be someone strong,
Keep walking on without you.
That's what I'll do.

Just for a little while,
I'm gonna hold back my tears,
Open my ears to my heart.

Yeah, that's what I'll do.
Hey baby - what can I say?
We've been together for many a day
Don't say a word, just slip away
You know I love you but I just can't stay
Packed my bags, I'm sure gonna miss ya, honey
And I'm sure gonna miss your lovin'

And I'm sure gonna miss your huggin'.

That's what I'll do.
Just for a while.

I'm not gonna be afraid
Yeah I don't have to be afraid
I'm gonna be strong
I'm gonna keep walkin' on without you

That's what I'll do
Just for a little while, I'm gonna
Oh yeah
Open my ears to my heart
Hey baby

Gotta keep on and on

Hey hey hey yeah
Everybody's gonna be all right
Yeah yeah yeah.
