311 | Lyrics | I'll Be Here Awhile

I'll be here a while, ain't goin' nowhere
I'll be here a while, ain't goin' nowhere
I'll be here a while, ain't goin' nowhere
I'll be here a while

Far is solace in the maddening pace
Sad state written on my face
Not a tight rope walk but dance
(Oh, oh)
Uncertain game of chance
(Oh, oh)
But I'll see it through in time

I'll be here a while, ain't goin' nowhere
I'll be here a while, ain't goin' nowhere
I'll be here a while, ain't goin' nowhere
I'll be here a while

And if a person place or thing can deliver
I will quiver with delight
Tempted by the hand that could
Blind my vision and sight
But at twenty years of age
(Oh, oh)
In frolic and in rage
(Oh, oh)
I will see it through in time

I'll be here a while, ain't goin' nowhere
I'll be here a while, ain't goin' nowhere
I'll be here a while, ain't goin' nowhere
I'll be here a while

But the dawn has come into the endless night
And everything gonna be alright
But at thirty years of age
(Ooh, ooh)
Through frolic and in rage
(Ooh, ooh)
All regressed and healed in time

I'll be here a while, ain't goin' nowhere
Said I, said I, said I, I will survive

Hey yea
Hey yea
Hey yea
