if only for a while

Every moment that together we spent
was a moment I wished never would end,
but they did, one by one.

While I was sharing with you
those little pieces of time,
I couldn’t feel anything but lucky.

And I knew our times together would be
few and far between
but I didn’t really care,

for I knew that I had been to the mountaintop
if only for a while,
in sharing time with you and a smile.

And I think there was magic there,
I know there was for me,
and if only one moment together
did we ever spend,

it will live on in my heart
for an eternity.

Oh, the way you made me feel,
if only for a while.
