For a Moment

"FOR A MOMENT"
(Gibbs/Hurley)

Saw her in my coffee cup today
Smiling in that photogenic way

For a moment
I thought I should hesitate, contemplate
For a moment
Then stir her away

Thought I heard a voice above the fray
Down in Central Square as if to say

For a moment
Take the time to memorize the perfect size
For a moment
Then store it away, away, away, away...

'Cause I've been standing in these shoes awhile
And I've been growing really tired of
Minor chords with major themes
And staring at the ceiling beams
And cloying movies choke me up
And sentiment keeps spilling down the cup

Did I feel those curves upon my bed ?
Reaching out found my guitar instead

For a moment
I thought to disintegrate would be my fate
For a moment
Then strummed it away, away...
