about

Notes: I did not have the pleasure of knowing Hannah but news that Dana lost one of her daughters was very difficult to hear. This song is about how nothing lasts forever, not childhood, not pain and hardship, not life itself. - Patrick Loehr

All proceeds go to the Education Fund for Hannah's daughter, Athena.

lyrics

The clock stopped 10 minutes too soon.
The bottle broke and the raven crossed the moon.
And the telephone bell just rang, rang, rang.
The children came down from the trees,
with bruised elbows and bloody knees.
But it’s only for so long.

The flag fell but the battle raged on.
The girls scattered roses across the lawn.
And the clock bell simply chimed, chimed, chimed.
Sometimes we all can lose our way,
in a bitter wind, under clouds of gray.
But it’s only for so long.
