A Moment Lost Lyrics
Enya
Lyrics
It's only now, when words are said
that break my heart in two,
I wonder how you can endure
all I've said, all I say to you.
How strong, how brave, how true of you
to bear the hurt I gave.
I know it tears your heart in two;
all I've said, all I say to you.
After all the words are said,
after all the dreams we made;
ev'ry one a precious one,
ev'ry one a summer sun...
A moment lost, forever gone,
can never be again,
so know how much it means to me;
all you said,
all you gave,
all your love to me.
