Cornelius:
|
¢Ü It only takes a moment
|
¢Ü For your eyes to meet, and then
|
¢Ü Your heart knows
|
¢Ü In a moment
|
¢Ü You will never be alone again
|
¢Ü I held her
|
¢Ü For an instant
|
¢Ü But my arms felt sure and strong
|
¢Ü It only takes a moment
|
¢Ü To be loved
|
¢Ü A whole life long
|
|
Isn't the world full of wonderful things?
|
I have lost so many things. My job,
|
my future,everything that people think is important,
|
but I don't care. Cos, even if I have to
|
dig ditches for the rest of my life,
|
I shall be a ditch-digger
|
who once had a wonderful day.

Clerk:
|
Mister, do you mind ?
|
I came in late. Right after
|
'it only'...
|
|
All in docket:
|
...Takes a moment!
|
But his arms felt sure and strong
|
It only takes a moment
|
|
|
Irene:
|
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
|
|
Irene:
|
And we'll recall when time runs out
|
|
Cornelius & Irene:
|
That it only took a moment
|
To be loved a whole life long!
