In an Instant...

In an instant,
You said you would be mine
In that moment,
My life felt so divine
One little second,
And I knew what I'd been missing
I forgot the pain of past mistakes
And thanked God for this blessing

(and I said)

Where do I go from here?
What comes after happiness?
Who am I to deserve this angel in my life who no one can resist?
When could I ever feel like this again
If you say you've had enough?
How could I ever want anybody else once I've felt your love?

In an instant,
I know you could break my heart
In that moment,
You would tear my world apart
One tragic second,
And my life would fade away
And I would stand there all alone
With everything to say

(and I'd say)

Where do I go from here?
What am I to do?
Who am I supposed to love now when I'm so in love with you?
Why must I find somebody else
If you decide I'm not worth the pain?
How can I lose someone like you and ever expect to feel the same?
