If we could only bend this minute
Infinitely extend this minute
Then I could live my whole life right now
Reality is sweet this minute
Can't we repeat and repeat this minute?
Why can't it be always right now?
I've parted with yesterday
Yesterday's moment is cold
All I ask is this moment to hold
How can we ever lose this minute?
From all my life, I choose this minute
I will give up the old and the new
Sharing with you this minute now
If I could just hold my breath and closе my eyes and not make a sound
Will thе universe stop going 'round?
Still the universe keeps going 'round and 'round
And on and on and on and on and on
A minute's almost gone
How can we ever, ever lose this minute?
From all my life, I choose this minute
I will never need anything more than living for this minute now
This minute now
