"After Awhile"

After Awhile - Jimmie Dale Gilmore

I remember

When You Told Me

With a Smile

Someday Baby

You'll Be Rolling

Out in Style

I could wait forever

Learnin' about never and always

You were in a hurry

You had time worry

And room enough to find my heart

And tear it all apart

I'm not certain

When You Lost

That Certain Smile

But I can Say

It's the Price you has Pay for

After Awhile

How I love you

How I long to

See that Smile

That Certain Smile

But You've Forgotten

Life is a Treasure

And Not a trial

Take these precious flowers

Take these happy Hours

And Hold them

I've forsaken never

I'll be here for ever

And after awhile won't hold the key

And steal you away from Me

I'm still my certain

When You Lost

That Certain Smile

But now I can see

It's the only way to be free

From after awhile
