FOR A LITTLE WHILE
Gus Kahn / Carter / Ortmann

as rec by Perry Como


For a little while I'll be far from you,
Dreams will have to do while we're apart;
And for a little while every kiss will be
Just a memory locked in my heart.

I know every other sweetheart, the same as you and I,
Will say a prayer together, and so the time will fly;
And then I'll see you smile, sonn we'll kiss once more,
This is only for a little while!

I know every other sweetheart, the same as you and I,
Will say a prayer together, and so the time will fly;
And then I'll see you smile, sonn we'll kiss once more,
This is only for a little while!
