Only For A Moment

Lyrics and Music by Fong Xiong Ai Voice was used Album 6 Undisclosed 4. Only For A Moment Only for a moment… I’ll look for cracks in the line, Look for what tomorrow may bring. Still here I stand, Breathing in all of me, Wondering what this moment means. Verse 1 Over mountains high, Under buried snow, I’ve walked through places Only yesterday would know. And even when my tears become the rain, I let them fall, I let them wash away the pain. I hear the thunder cry As my yesterdays are gone, Like the sky is reminding me I still have to carry on. Pre-Chorus All of that is just a memory Slowly fading into blue, Every road that brought me here, Every version I once knew. Maybe I don’t have to hold them, Maybe I don’t have to know Maybe all I really have Is this moment before it goes. Chorus Only for a moment, These thoughts can overtake me. Only for a moment, My whole life can suddenly change. Only for a moment Can forever feel so close, Then disappear before I know. So I’ll breathe while I am breathing, I’ll feel everything I can. Because only for a moment Do I get to be who I am. Only for a moment And that moment’s been given to me. Verse 2 I’ve watched the seasons turn, Watched the snowfall disappear, Watched the things I thought would last Become another year. I’ve stood beneath a summer sky, I’ve walked through winter alone, I’ve chased tomorrow down a road Just trying to find my way home. But tomorrow never promised me That it would wait around, And yesterday is just an echo Growing softer now. Pre-Chorus All the things I thought I needed, All the things I couldn’t change, They were only passing moments That somehow gave me my name. So maybe life was never meant For me to understand Maybe it was meant to happen While I’m holding out my hands. Chorus Only for a moment, These thoughts can overtake me. Only for a moment, My whole life can suddenly change. Only for a moment Can forever feel so close, Then disappear before I know. So I’ll breathe while I am breathing, I’ll feel everything I can. Because only for a moment Do I get to be who I am. Only for a moment And that moment’s been given to me. Bridge Maybe that’s the beauty Maybe that’s the pain Nothing gets forever Not the snow. Not the mountains. Not the rain. Not the tears I cried yesterday, Not the person I used to be. Not even this heart beating Gets eternity. So if I only have this moment Let it be enough for me. Final Chorus Only for a moment, Let the thunder call my name. Only for a moment, Let me stand beneath the rain. Let the mountains rise above me, Let the buried snow remain, Let my yesterday fade into blue I don’t need it back again. Because I’m here while I am breathing, And tomorrow still can wait. I spent so long searching for forever I forgot what I had today. Only for a moment Only for this life Only for the little piece of time That somehow became mine. Outro Only for a moment Yesterday becomes a memory. Only for a moment Tomorrow is still a dream. But right now I’m still here. Still breathing. Still me. Only for a moment And this moment was given to me.
