Lyrics[]
I fell in love
With the only girl who knows what I'm about
I fell in love
With a boy and I can't tell if I fell out
After all is said and done
I can't just pretend I'm movin' on
Is it just a part we’re playing?
'Cause it don’t feel like we’re fakin'
When we're underneath the lights
My heart's no longer broken
For a moment
Just for a moment
When we're singing side by side
There's so much left unspoken
For a moment
Just for a moment
A moment in love (Just For a Moment)
A moment in love (Just For a Moment)
But is a moment enough?
Way, way back then
Always dreamed it's you and me
'Til the end
Nini:
Now, we can’t play pretend
And I'm scared to talk to my best friend
Should I stay or let you go?
Will ya love me when the curtains close?
Ricky:
Is it just a part we’re playing
Cause it don't feel like we’re fakin'
When we're underneath the lights
My heart's no longer broken
For a moment
Just for a moment
When we're singing side by side
There's so much left unspoken
For a moment
Just for a moment
A moment in love (Just For a Moment)
A moment in love (Just For a Moment)
But is a moment enough?
Maybe, your heart still stops
When you see me
Maybe it's worth another try
Better place, better time
When we're underneath the lights
My heart's no longer broken
For a moment
Just for a moment
When we're singing side by side
There's so much left unspoken
For a moment
Just for a moment
A moment in love (Just For a Moment)
A moment in love (Just For a Moment)
But is a moment enough?
When we're underneath the lights
My heart's no longer broken
For a moment
Just for a moment
