A moment like this
Reba & Kelly 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?
It's almost that feelin'
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
Oh, I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this

Everything changes
But beauty remains
Something so tender
I can't explain
Well, I may be dreamin'
But 'til I awake
Can't we make this 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
Oh, I can't believe it's 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
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
Oh, I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment (moment), like this

Oh, (moment) like this
(Moment like)
Oh, I can't believe its happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime




For a moment like this
Ooh, like this

Pardon me for appearing as a bot and a scammer (for some reason people like calling me these):
But all i share, even if the same comment is shared too often and to many souls, all is what we all should know.
And all those who preach and share the biblical verses, none give out the clearance of why and what the reason for some verses in bible, and why a biblical verse says what it says:

Let use an example with this verse:
Revelation 18:4 And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
This verse gives a message to leave the false reality and therefore our false lives in the matrix behind for good.
Now the clearance why:
To all those who praise all these man made schools and lives in the matrix: All these dudes and madams, who work it politics and in schools systems, as professors in uni and who`s opinions are ye all so willing to hear and take a listen - all are MASONS or the puppets of them (freemasons) and who Freemasons are? - LIARS, STEALERS, MURDERERS. Ye want to be one of them? - then keep listening and living after their opinions. John Chapter 8 44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it. That single verse, perfectly describing who the MASONS are and also, who is the master they serve: THE BAPHOMET aka lucifer.

My message is always been clear: LEARN AND STUDY THE BIBLE AND SEARCH ALL OUT ABOUT THE POPULAR DEATH CULT, FREEMASONRY. Thats why I use the short form often: BIBLE + FREEMASONRY.

And the reason why I have no videos no content produce by me, is because I don´t have nothing valuable nor pointfull enough to do a video about

A lifetime ago Kelly Clarkson captured the hearts of America. She still is thee American Idol and shines just as brightly these many years later.

@rocknroll12341

I don’t even remember the names of any of the other American Idol winners. Daughtry was on the show at one point, wasn’t he? Bo Bice was another I think. I don’t think they were winners, but they existed.
