One Shining Moment (Luther Vandross Version)

The ball is tipped

And there you are

You're running for your life

You're a shooting star

In all the years, no one knows

Just how hard you worked

But now it shows

In one shining moment, it's all on the line

In one shining moment, there frozen in time

But time is short

And the road is long

In the blinking of an eye

That moment's gone

And when it's done, win or lose

You always did your best

'Cause inside you knew

That in one shining moment, you reached deep inside

One shining moment, you knew you were alive

Feel the beat of your heart

Feel the wind in your face

It's more than a contest

It's more than a, a race

And when it's done, win or lose

You always did your best

'Cause inside you knew

In one shining moment, you reached for the sky

In one shining moment, you knew, yeah

In one shining moment, you're willing to try

In one shining moment, you knew

One shining moment
