A Moment
for a moment I see you
for a moment you're there
for a moment I perceive
imagination's tawdry flare
for a moment the misty air
for moment the lying glare
for a moment it all is right
for a moment tis normal night
for a moment I gaze and see your form
for a moment all is right, life conform'd
for a moment I gaze and am at peace
for a moment we hold happy leas'd
for a moment the sheets are ruffled
for a moment is misery temp'ry baffled
for a moment it's all the same
for a moment, I feel not to blame
for a moment I can reach and hold
for a moment, is time unfold
For a moment, I can look and smile
for a moment, you trust and beguile
For a moment, you sleep in my life
For a moment, we have no strife
For a moment, we can be together
for a moment, it lasts forever
for a moment, your form is in my mind
for a moment, all is kind
for a moment, we will be as one
for a moment, happiness won
For a moment I see you there
For a moment, only a moment to spare
For in the next moment you're gone again
For in the next moment, it's never been
And in this moment I am alone
And in this moment, all is forlorn
You disappear and I am left to gaze
You're gone now forever, into memory's haze
