For a Minute There

[Verse 1] We were walking along the ocean Together hand in hand When I stopped to write "I Love You" in the sand And when I looked up you were standing Ten miles out at sea And in a sweat I woke up from that crazy dream As I reached to hold you in the morning light It was your pillow I clung to so tight [Chorus] For a minute there I thought it was you For a minute there My prayers had finally come true For a minute there I began again to live What I wouldn't give For just a minute there [Verse 2] Five o'clock on Friday Sitting at a light When this angel walked right by me On my right And the cars all started honking As my feet hit the ground And though I chased and called You never turned around Oh the walk, the hair, the perfume Were the same How I wished she would've answered To your name [Chorus] [Verse 3] Tonight the stars in heaven Are bright as they could be And I swear on of them Is winking down at me [Chorus] [Outro] What I wouldn't give How I'd love to live For just a minute there
