"A Little Longer" original song by Kari Fleskes by KariFleskes

There's nothing like the rain
that cries into the ground;
But to quench the thirst of summer,
sometimes the winter's got to drown.

There's nothing like the fall,
nothing quite like the jump;
But if you're too scared to risk it all,
why even bother waking up?

(Chorus:)
She'll hold it all
a little longer;
She'll hold it off
a little longer.

Suitcases on the street,
waiting for the cab;
Running from all the harder things
and shamelessly chasing the past.

Look into the mirror,
pretend the pain isn't there.
Just a girl playing poorly at charades
and nothing about that is quite fair.

(Repeat Chorus)
