It Only Takes a Moment (from Hello, Dolly!)

It Only Takes a Moment(From 'Hello, Dolly!') (Remastered 1989) - Ella Fitzgerald

It only takes a moment

For your eyes to meet and then

Your heart knows in a moment

You will never be alone again

I held her for an instant

But my arms felt sure and strong

It only takes a moment

To be loved a whole life long

I missed a few words back there

Mr Jackl Right after it only

Takes a moment

For your eyes to meet and then

Your heart knows in a moment

You will never be alone again

He held her for an instant

But his arms felt sure and strong

It only takes a moment

He held me for an instant

But his arms felt safe and strong

It only takes a moment

To be loved a whole life long

And that is all

That love's about

And we'll recall when time runs out

That it only took a moment

To be loved a whole life long
