It Only Takes A Moment

It only takes a moment

For your eyes to meet, and then...

Your heart knows in a moment

You will never be alone again

I held her for an instant

But my arms felt sure and strong

It only takes a moment

To be loved a whole life long

"Isn't the world full of wonderful things?"

"I have lost so many things, my job, my future, "

"Everything that people think is important, but I dont care!"

"Cause even if I have to dig ditches for the rest of my life, "

"I should be a ditch digger who once had a wonderful day!"

("Hey mister do you mind, I came in late, right after- It only")

Takes a moment

But his arms felt sure and strong

It only takes a moment...

He held me for an instant

But his arms, felt safe and strong

It only takes a moment

To be loved a whole life long

And that is all that loves about

And we'll recall, when time runs out...

That it only... took... a moment,

To be loved...

A Whole...

Life...

Long.
