Arkells
Only For a Moment
[Verse 1]
Dressed up, you got your hair done up
For the first time in a couple weeks
You're choked up from a real gut punch
You got some color back in your cheeks

[Verse 2]
You keep a picture on the wall of your family
You keep a journal to reflect
You keep a picture on the wall of your family
Your secret's close to your chest

[Pre-Chorus]
If only for a moment, tonight
You're not looking over your shoulder
If only for a moment, tonight
I dipped you low and we both fell over

[Chorus]
At karaoke we were trading each verse
You wore my jacket and I carried your purse
For a moment, tonight
Only for a moment
Yeah, we could feel alright

(We could we could we could feel alright)
(We could we could we could feel alright)
[Verse 3]
I freeze my heart skips a beat
Every time I hear the phone ringing
You pick up and speak soft in the next room
I hold my breath I'm trying to listen in

[Verse 4]
The doctor said, "this might run in the family
So we'll be keeping an eye."
The doctor said, "this might run in the family
So stand by, we're standing by"

[Pre-Chorus]
If only for a moment, tonight
You're not looking over your shoulder
If only for a moment, tonight
I dipped you low and we both fell over

[Chorus]
At karaoke we were trading each verse
You wore my jacket and I carried your purse
For a moment, tonight
Only for a moment
Yeah, we could feel alright

(We could we could we could feel alright)
(We could we could we could feel alright)
(We could we could we could feel alright)
(We could we could we could feel alright)
[Bridge]
She fell asleep beside me
In the backseat of a cab
I leaned in to kiss her forehead
She reached out to grab my hand
We got back to our apartment
Set the alarm for 7 AM
'Cause we're driving back to her hometown
Where the walls are caving in

[Pre-Chorus]
If only for a moment, tonight
You're not looking over your shoulder
If only for a moment, tonight
I dipped you low and we both fell over

[Chorus]
At karaoke we were trading each verse
You wore my jacket and I carried your purse
For a moment, tonight
If only for a moment
Yeah, we could feel alright

(We could we could we could feel alright)
(We could we could we could feel alright)
(We could we could we could feel alright)
(We could we could we could feel alright)
