It might take sometime, don't ask why

some things just happen, in the blink of an eye

all that we have has a moment's guarantee

a transient pleasure destined to flee



Today I will love you, like we've only one night

today I will give you half of my life.

Take it with you wherever you go.

Sit it next to you when you're not feeling whole.



It comes when it wants, all discretions aside

just when you find your groove the earth begins to slide



Today I will love you, like we've only one night

today I will give you half of my life.

Take it with you and keep it alive

treasure this moment, we stole from our lives.



I can count on my hand what I hold in faith

this journey is programmed to give and to take

but I choose to believe and I choose not to be used

I choose to take the fall and I've chosen you



Today I will love you, like we've only one night

today I will give you half of my life

take it with you wherever you go

sit it next to you when you're not feeling whole



Today I will love you, like we've only one night

today I will give you half of my life.

Take it with you and keep it alive

treasure this moment, we stole from our lives.
