Lyrics

If I could take this moment forever
Turn the pages of my mind
To another place and time
We would never say goodbye
If I could find the words, I would speak them
Then I wouldn't be tongue-tied
When I looked into your eyes
We would never say goodbye
If I could stop the moon ever rising
Day would not become the night
Wouldn't feel this cold inside
And we'd never say goodbye
I wish that our dreams were frozen
Then our hearts would not be broken
When we let each other go
If I could steal this moment forever
Paint a picture-perfect smile
So our story stayed alive
We would never say goodbye
La, la-la-la-la
La-la-la-la, la
La-la-la-la-la
Written by: Maurice Ravel, Pamela Eileen Sheyne
