A moment like this
Sandra Oxenryd 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 feeling that we met before
So tell me that you don't think I'm crazy
When I tell you love has come here and now

A moment like this some people wait a lifetime
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 dreaming but till I awake
Can't we make this dream last forever
And I'll cherish all the memories that we share

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 wait forever for that on special kiss
Oh I can't believe it's happening to me




Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this
Oh Like this
