Half a Moment

Half a moment

We are together

I shall want no-one else

And nothing new.

Half a moment

I shall treasure,

Keep it locked away

For some future rainy day.

Should you leave me

With just this moment

In my mind

I shall capture it anew,

Like some picture

Taken in my childhood

Half a moment

Spent with you.

Half a moment

I shall treasure,

Keep it locked away

For some future rainy day.

Should you leave me

With just this moment

In my mind

I shall capture it anew,

Like some picture

Taken in my childhood

Half a moment

Spent with you.

Countless vivid memories

Spin before my view,

Like some toy kaleidoscope

Images of you.

Time looks kindly

On fleeting lovers

They can turn the briefest hour

Into a day

Turn a moment

To a lifetime

Making it to last

Blending future with the past.

We're together,

What else can matter?

Even though

Half a moment is too few

I shall save it

'Til I have another

Making one whole moment

Filled with you.
