Last night at a friend's place we were dancing
We barely spoke a word but it felt so right
Later we went out to the shore of the river
Where we sat so close, talking all night
But then you mentioned your boyfriend
Boy, what a disappointment
And it felt like forever
When your hand touched mine
Someone stopped the time
Just a moment that lasted all night
And it felt like forever
When your eyes met mine
I forgot my line
Dazed and stunned, I got lost in their light
As we sat there I leaned in to kiss you
Almost did it – usually, I'm shy
Wondering what might happen, I hesitated
The sun had come up as we said goodbye
Again you mentioned your damn boyfriend
Boy, what a disappointment
Then I said “fuck it” and just did it
Kissed you on the mouth
And you didn't object, seemed to like it in fact
All my doubts were in vain, it turned out
And it felt like forever
When your lips touched mine
Someone stopped the time
Times like these are what life is about
At least that's how I wish it had been
Not impossible, it would seem
And it felt like forever
When your hand touched mine
Someone stopped the time
Just a moment that lasted all night
And it felt like forever
When your eyes met mine
I forgot my line
Dazed and stunned, I got lost in their light
