yesterday as i talked with a friend in town i forgot to remember that you d gone and for a moment i found myself smiling but a moment isn t very long and last night as i danced with a stranger and she held her cheek close to my own for a moment i almost forgot you but a moment isn t very long every now and then i get a chance to smile but those every now and then s just last a little while and tonight i ve got a date with a new love but i know i d do just as well at home for a moment maybe i could forget you but a moment isn t very long but a moment isn t very long
