In a While Songtext
von Tres Chicas

You keep his picture close beside you
Girlish wishes that never came true
But the pony you wanted when you were a child
Is dead in the ground by now

You bring the bar home
And the smell of your hair
That wilts the flowers
That your girlhood put there

You′re disappointed
Before you lay your head down
You're tired of your life in this town

And in a while nothing will hurt anymore
And a hall light won′t wake you behind a closed door
And everyone cries and everything dies
In a while, in a while, in a while
In a while, in a while, in a while


Can praying save you as you wait by the phone?
It doesn't seem to 'cause you′re still alone

And your little girl wishes worn thin as a dime
Nobody can help you this time

And in a while nothing will hurt anymore
And a hall light won′t wake you behind a closed door
And everyone cries and everything dies
In a while, in a while, in a while
In a while, in a while, in a while

Horses and hay
Old lovers hold sway
You're giving yourself away
And apples and grays
And pintos and bays
Are told just to saddle on by


In a while nothing will hurt anymore
And a hall light won′t wake you behind a closed door
And everyone cries and everything dies
In a while, in a while, in a while
In a while, in a while, in a while
