Never seen you before,
Then you're suddenly gone.
Kinda weird you were with my ex-girlfriend…
But you came through the door
Like a spotlight came on.
How the hell do you know my ex-girlfriend?
They say nothing real happens at first sight.
Is that right?
'Cause your eyes, that look, you've got me on your hook,
And I'll bite.
I know every last kid
Who grew up in this place.
How's it possible I never met you?
Swear to God, if I did,
I'd remember that face.
I don't know how I'd ever forget you.
Tell me I'm not seeing things here.
Has the vodka got me twisted?
How does someone show then vanish
Like she never existed?
For a moment, you were all I saw,
Like the lights went dim and the crowd stood still.
Time had frozen while I stood in awe
Of you framed in the doorway like a work of art.
I know I stared.
I couldn't blink.
I couldn't breathe.
I could hardly think.
All of space and time collapsed to fill
A single beat of my heart:
My life in
A moment.
I'm supposed to be cool
With panache and with poise.
What the hell do I say when I find you?
Are you queen of your school
With your pick of the boys,
Leaving hearts trailing broken behind you?
Am I someone you'd want Mom and Dad to see?
"So who's he?"
Your one perfect guy all of a sudden I
Wanna be?
Have you thought of the ring
That'll make you say, "Yes,"
Once we've lost both ourselves in each other?
Do you know everything
That you want in The Dress?
Do you feel like you'd make a good mother?
What the f*ck!? Slow down a second.
Pump the brakes! My brain sounds broken.
I cannot be hearing church bells
When we still haven't spoken!
For a moment, I could see it all:
Every twist and turn of my destiny,
Flying by me like a cannonball,
And in all of the scenes, beside me 'til the end,
Was someone I
Would swear was you.
I don't know how,
But I simply knew.
I'm not saying that we're meant to be,
Or that we're going to spend
Forever
Together.
Let's start with
A moment.
Out through the mouth,
In through the nose.
Body relaxes,
Racing heart slows.
Everything's fine;
Just kinda froze.
I think I'm okay now.
Just give me a moment.
Give me a touch.
Give me a glance.
Give me your number.
Give me a chance.
Give me your hand.
Give me a dance.
I don't need forever;
Just give me a moment.
For a moment, you were all I saw,
Like the lights went dim and the crowd stood still.
Time had frozen while I stood in awe
Of you framed in the doorway like a work of art.
I know I stared.
I couldn't blink.
I couldn't breathe.
I could hardly think.
All of space and time collapsed to fill
A single beat of my heart:
My life in
A moment.
For a moment, I could see it all:
Every twist and turn of my destiny,
Flying by me like a cannonball,
And in all of the scenes, beside me 'til the end,
Was someone I
Would swear was you.
I don't know how,
But I simply knew.
I'm not saying that we're meant to be,
Or that we're going to spend
Forever
Together,
But who can
Say whether
This night is
The start of
Something we're
Both part of?
Let's find out.
Let's try it.
Let's start with
A moment.
