There may not be another moment as the one right now
I’ve heard your voice and seen your face and nothing can compare
Before the day is done and gone I will tell how I feel
So please don’t leave me before I wake because my heart will fall
I know there will be no one there to catch me as it drops
If only you could see my face when I say three words
But your heart belongs to another and I can’t help but cry
One day, someday when time slows down
We might be together, forever but at the moment I’ll be fine
As long as you stay my friend and never leave my side
