I'll be here a while, ain't going nowhereI'll be here a while, ain't going nowhereI'll be here a while, ain't going nowhereI'll be here a whileFar is solace in the maddening pacesad state written on my facenot a tight rope walk but danceuncertain game of chancebut I'll see it through in timeI'll be here a while, ain't going nowhereI'll be here a while, ain't going nowhereI'll be here a while, ain't going nowhereI'll be here a whileAnd if a person place or thing can deliverI will quiver with delighttempted by the hand that couldblind my vision and sightbut at twenty years of agein frolic and in rageI will see it through in timeI'll be here a while, ain't going nowhereI'll be here a while, ain't going nowhereI'll be here a while, ain't going nowhereI'll be here a while
