How long is a moment, I gotta know
It passes so quickly, so let's take it slow
How deep is the ocean, how deep is your soul
My heart is a question, got a passion to know
I search for the words to express what I feel
And wonder out loud if the answer is real
Tell me, oh, are we joined for all time
Or just a blink of an eye
How long is a moment, this moment
Oh, are we a kiss and a hug
Or a lifetime of love
How long is a moment
Now the feeling is strong
Will time prove me wrong
Tell me how long, how long is a moment
Blue skies and sunsets, signs from above
Is it unrealistic, what we ask of love
We just weigh our chances, and hope for the best
Treat each other with kindness, and pray for the rest
If this is our time to shine here on Earth
Let's treasure each second for all it is worth
Tell me, oh, are we joined for all time
Or just a blink of an eye
How long is a moment, this moment
Oh, are we a kiss and a hug
Or a lifetime of love
How long is a moment
Now the feeling is strong
Will time prove me wrong
Tell me how long, how long is a moment
Love as strong as the mountain's high
Or as fragile as a baby's cry
Mighty as a rose or afraid to touch
A memory unfaded remembers so much
Tell me, oh, are we joined for all time
Or just a blink of an eye
How long is a moment, this moment
Oh, are we a kiss and a hug
Or a lifetime of love
How long is a moment
Now the feeling is strong
Will time prove me wrong
Tell me how long, tell me how long
How long is a moment, tell me how long
