Half a Moment

by Sarah Brightman

Verse 1

D7     G
Half a moment
D7     G
We are together
  Em    Bm           Cmaj7
I shall want, no-one else
            G
And nothing new.
G      D7
Half a moment
        Em
I shall treasure,
Bm
 Keep it locked away
    C                  D7
For some future, rainy day.

Verse 2

D7         G
Should you leave me
D7             G
With just this moment
Em    Bm           Cmaj7
In my mind I shall capture
      G
it, a-new,
G         D7
Like some picture
Em           Bm
Taken in my childhood
C      G
Half a moment
D7         G
Spent with you.

Repeat Verse 1 (instrumental or

Repeat Verse 2

Bridge

D7        D     G
Countless vivid memories
D              G
Spin before my view,
D              Em
Like some toy kaleidoscope
Bm      Cmaj7  D     D7
Im-ages of     you.

(slower & dreamily)

D7         G
Time looks kindly
D7          G
On fleeting lovers
Em       Bm                Cmaj7
They can turn the briefest hour
       G
Into a day
G      D7
Turn a moment
      Em
To a lifetime
Bm
 Making it to last
C                        D7
Blending future with the past.

   (at tempo and louder)

D7      G
We're together,
D7            G
What else can matter?
Em    Bm
Even though
Bm     Cmaj7         G
Half a moment is too few
        D7
I shall save it
Em    Cmaj7  Bm
Til I have another
Em     Cmaj7     G
Making one whole moment
D7          G    C  D7  G
Filled with you
