In A Moment
Amanda Falk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Have you ever loved somebody so much you could not feel the
span of time
You couldn't explain why with every look in her eyes the weight
of the world shifted
Have you ever been driven to distraction
Waiting for the reaction that'll change your life
Spinning 'round your whole world was breaking down
Until she broke the silence
Cause in a moment everything could change
In a moment with an 'I love you'
Nothing will stay the same
In a moment everything could change
Are you looking for the simple revelation for the precious reason
you're alive
Are you waiting on the day to show her face without your past
mistakes to rob your time
Are you searching for the soul you sold in every penny at the
bottom of every wishing well
Are you living in the gutter in which you fell, in which you fell
Cause in a moment everything could change
In a moment in a moment
Everything could fade away
Everything could fade away
And in a moment everything could change
In a moment in a moment
Everything could fade away
Everything could fade away
Then I met you
You saw through my
Act one scene two
Putting on a show for you and
You called me out from
The character I hid behind
Pulled me into the light
Commanding the façade to step aside
And in a moment everything had changed
In a moment in a moment
Past regrets once called my name
Are fading are fading
The things that held me down are gone
Are gone now are gone and
Only your love carries on
Cause in a moment everything will fade
In a moment in a moment
Only your love will remain
Only your love
Cause in a moment everything will fade
In a moment in a moment
Only your love will remain
Only your love remains




In a moment in a moment
In a moment everything could change
