Masse released her self-titled debut album in 1990, a French language album that made her a star in Quebec and France, with the singles "C'est Zéro", "Billy", "Sans t'oublier" and "Prends bien garde". Her second album, À Contre Jour, followed in 1992.
In 1993, she won the Juno Award for Best New Female Artist. She married Sylvain Brault the same year.
In 1994 she released her debut English language album, Circle of One, on which she collaborated with Corey Hart (known for his early-1980s pop hits, such as "Sunglasses at Night"). Her relationship with Hart soon became romantic as well, and she divorced Brault in 1995.
She released a hits collection, Compilation, in 1996. She has not released another album since then, but has been a vocalist on Hart's albums and concert tours.
Hart and Masse married in 2000, and have four children together: daughters India, Dante and River, and son Rain. They now reside in The Bahamas.
One More Moment
Julie Masse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Sweet precious time
Not so far away
One more moment with you
A thousand dreams to cast one single light
Every day I feel I'm losing ground
My wind in fire chasing midnight sun
To tell you darling how
With one more look in your eyes
The darkest skies suddenly disappear
With one more touch of your hand
My trembling heart will stop this yearning
Give me
One more moment with
One more moment with you
All the air that I breathe
For just one more moment with
One more moment with you
Will lead me back my love to you again
If it could only follow the path of your heart
In the church of my tears and redemption I start
Searching for faith that we lost
With every candle burning
I'm closer to your heart
Baby, baby
We are lovers who can calm the waves
We are lovers who can storm the seas
Like kindred spirits for eternity
This truth will not desert me
Give me
One more moment with
One more moment with you
All the air that I breathe
For just one more moment with
One more moment with you
Everything I believe
Baby one more moment with
One more moment with you
Under the stars so free
Give me one more moment with you
As the river runs through
Will lead me back my love to you again
One more moment with you
Just give me one more moment with you

My younger sister was addicted to this song in the mid 90s. I'd come home from university during the holidays for the weekend and what would I hear playing? I think she was going through a relationship breakup or in love in high school but I heard this song over and over again. I was too busy with engineering workload at uni to really focus on this song but now that I listen to it it truly is beautiful.

I was so addicted to this song too. Went through a separation and divorce at the time...cried my eyes out everytime I played it.
