A moment like this
Leona Lewis(里歐娜) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

What if I told you it was all meant to be?
Would you believe me, would you agree?
Its almost that feeling that we've met before
So tell me that you don't think I'm crazy When I tell your love has come here and now

A Moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
I cant believe its happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

Everything changes, but beauty remains
Something so tender I cant explain
Well I may be dreaming but 'til I awake
Can we make the dream last forever?
And I'll cherish all the love we share

A Moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
I cant believe its happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

Could this be the greatest love of all?
I wanna know that you will catch me when I fall
So let me tell you this
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this

A Moment like this

A Moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
I cant believe its happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

A Moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
I cant believe its happening to me




Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Leona Lewis's "A Moment Like This" express the feeling of finding something so extraordinary that it seems almost fated. The opening lines suggest that the singer has finally found the one she has been waiting for and wishes to share her discovery with the other person. The chorus contains the title phrase, "a moment like this," repeated several times. The message of the chorus is that there are moments worth waiting for in life, and for some people, the moment of true love may be one of them. The song emphasizes that this experience is not something that can be forced or rushed, but rather something that one must trust will arrive in its own time. The lyrics encourage the listener to appreciate the beauty in life's unexpected surprises and to savor the moments that make life truly special.


The second verse of the song discusses how time can change everything, but true beauty persists. The lines "Something so tender I can't explain / Well, I may be dreaming but 'til I awake / Can we make the dream last forever?" convey the idea that love is precious and something to be cherished, even if it is fleeting. The bridge, which contains the lines "Could this be the greatest love of all? / I wanna know that you will catch me when I fall," shows that the singer is willing to put herself in a vulnerable position in order to experience the depth of love that she desires.
