Just for a Moment

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Nothing I can say phone to phone
I'll tell you something but you have to sit close
You're the one that I miss the most
I've heard that you're happy
And maybe it's selfish of me
To want you back this time
But it kills me now
We said our last goodbye
Won't you stay the night
Even just for a moment?
Perfect lie, pretend we're fine
Even just for a moment
Though we're over, we're so not over
Pull me closer, I need closure
This is our last goodbye
Stay the night, even just for a moment
Even just for a moment
When you're not hurting
It's hurting me (hurting me)
I'm blinded by the past
I'm lost at sea (mm)
I've heard that you're happy
And maybe it's selfish of me
To want you back this time
I know we decided it's better if we both were free
But it kills me now
We said our last goodbye
Won't you stay the night
Even just for a moment?
Perfect lie, pretend we're fine
Even just for a moment
Though we're over, we're so not over
Pull me closer, I need closure
This is our last goodbye
Stay the night, even just for a moment
Even just for a moment
Even just for a moment
We said our last goodbye
Won't you stay the night
Even just for a moment?
Perfect lie, pretend we're fine
Even just for a moment
Though we're over, we're so not over
Pull me closer, I need closure
This is our last goodbye
Stay the night, even just for a moment
(Moment, moment, moment, moment
Moment, moment, moment, moment)
Even just for a moment
(Moment, moment, moment, moment, moment, moment)
Won't you stay the night
Even just for a moment?
Even just for a moment
We said our last goodbye
Won't you stay the night
Even just for a moment?
Perfect lie, pretend we're fine
Even just for a moment
In Iselin's song Just For A Moment, the singer is clearly addressing someone who was once a lover, expressing how much they are missed. The singer acknowledges that they should not be saying what they are about to say through the phone, indicating a certain level of intimacy required for the message to be conveyed. The lyrics suggest that the two have decided to end things, but the singer cannot stop thinking about the other person and wishes they were back together. They know that it may be selfish to want this, but they cannot help their feelings.
The lyrics of the chorus demonstrate a deep longing for the other person, with the singer asking for them to stay the night, even if it's just for a moment, and to pretend that they are still together. The singer acknowledges that they are not technically together anymore, but they still feel a strong emotional connection with their former lover, and want to feel that again, even if it's only for a short time.
Overall, the song is a beautifully written expression of heartbreak and unrequited love. Iselin's voice perfectly captures the emotions of the singer, making the listener feel the same longing and sadness as the singer.

Yes yes
@Sterlo139
What about the people that disliked?🤔
@nurrahmathanif
there's no great taste lol. it's just your own preference. some people think classical and jazz musics are harder and more complex than modern one or etc. but some people prefer listen to this kind of song cause it's more easy listening and simple, it's just your option.
@Inieslife
2024 anyone?
