For a Moment

"FOR A MOMENT"

(Gibbs/Hurley)

Saw her in my coffee cup today

Smiling in that photogenic way

For a moment

I thought I should hesitate, contemplate

For a moment

Then stir her away

Thought I heard a voice above the fray

Down in Central Square as if to say

For a moment

Take the time to memorize the perfect size

For a moment

Then store it away, away, away, away...

'Cause I've been standing in these shoes awhile

And I've been growing really tired of

Minor chords with major themes

And staring at the ceiling beams

And cloying movies choke me up

And sentiment keeps spilling down the cup

Did I feel those curves upon my bed ?

Reaching out found my guitar instead

For a moment

I thought to disintegrate would be my fate

For a moment

Then strummed it away, away...
