Lyrics
JUST A MOMENT
By JOHN NEIL MARTIN & LYNDA DOBBIN-TURNER
V1
Looked outside yesterday
I didn't see the same place
It was there just the day before
Without you, it's not the same anymore
I know one day soon I'll see you again
Ya you'll be waiting there
Just like some lost friend
I'm moving on now though I just gotta find
The door to that place in my mind
Chorus
Just give me a moment
Ya, give me just one moment of time
With or without you
I'm moving on with my life
One more day, one more night
Just give me one more moment of time
And I'll be fine
Ya, I'll be fine
V2
Time can quench the pain
At least that's what they say
Time will not erase
The memories that we made
Now I'm here alone
And lost without you near
Looking for my way home
The path is so unclear
Chorus
Just give me a moment
Ya, give me just one moment of time
With or without you
I'm moving on with my life
One more day, one more night
Just give me one more moment of time
And I'll be fine
Ummm, I'll be fine
I'll be fine
Looked outside yesterday
And I didn't see the same place
