Half A Moment Lyrics - Singles - Jose Carreras

"This is half a moment to be true. 

Just you're here as long as I'm with you." 

Male Tenor: 

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. 

Countless vivid memories 

Spin before my view, 

Like some toy kaleidoscope 

Images of you. 

Chorus: 

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. 

Male Tenor & Chorus: 

We're together, 

What else can matter? 

Even though 

Half a moment is too few
