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)

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.
