One More Moment

[Intro]
[clean electric guitar arpeggio, fretless bass glides softly]
(Yeah... yeah...)
(Ooh, baby...)

[Verse 1]
[tenor male vocals]
The city's sleeping outside
But my heart is wide awake
Every second that goes by
Feels like something I can't replace
You're the calm inside my mind
The light that never fades
And every time you hold my hand
The world just drifts away

[Pre-Chorus]
[Rhodes piano enters with warm sustained chords]
I don't wanna watch the clock tonight
I just wanna stay lost in your eyes

[Chorus]
Give me one more moment
One more minute in your arms
Let me feel the way you pull me close
Shelter me from all the dark
Don't say that it's over
Don't let this feeling end
Give me one more moment
And let me fall for you again

[Verse 2]
[fretless bass becomes more expressive]
Every laugh, every smile
Lives inside my memory
Like a song I keep replaying
Every night endlessly
If the dawn is coming soon
Let's pretend it's far away
Cause right here beside you
Is where I wanna stay

[Pre-Chorus]
[falsetto ad-libs]
I can hear forever in your voice
And tonight I don't wanna lose that choice

[Chorus]
Give me one more moment
One more minute in your arms
Let me feel the way you pull me close
Shelter me from all the dark
Don't say that it's over
Don't let this feeling end
Give me one more moment
And let me fall for you again

[Bridge]
[drums drop out, Rhodes and guitar only]
Maybe time keeps moving on
Maybe night won't last too long
But right now you're all I need
You're everything to me

[Final Chorus]
[full arrangement returns with emotional vocal runs]
Give me one more moment
One more minute in your arms
Let me feel the way you pull me close
Shelter me from all the dark
Don't say that it's over
Don't let this feeling end
Give me one more moment
And let me fall for you again

[Outro]
[falsetto]
One more moment...
Stay a little longer...
(Ooh... yeah...)
[guitar and Rhodes slowly fade]
