It only takes one

After listening to the impromptu performance by local amateur musicians who played classic country, bluegrass and gospel songs under a tent in the courthouse square this past weekend, I realized that I prefer that type of live music to the stage sets by traveling professionals.  Makes me want to walk into an Irish pub and hear impromptu music there!

It Only Takes A Moment by
Cornelius
It only takes a moment
For your eyes to meet and then
Your heart knows in a moment
You will never be alone again

I held her for an instant
But my arms felt sure and strong
It only takes a moment
To be loved a whole life long…

Clerk
I missed a few words back there, Mr Hackl. Right after ‘it only’–

…Takes a moment!
For your eyes to meet and then
Your heart knows in a moment
You will never be alone again

He held her for an instant
But his arms felt sure and strong
It only takes a moment–

Mrs. Molloy
He held me for an instant
But his arms felt safe and strong
It only takes a moment
To be loved a whole life long

Cornelius
And that is all
That love’s about

Mrs. Molloy
And we’ll recall when time runs out

Both
That it only took a moment
To be loved a whole life long!
