Just for a Moment lyrics
[Verse 1: Joshua Bassett & Olivia Rodrigo]
I fell in love
With the only girl who knows what I’m about
I fell in love
With a boy and I can’t tell if I fell out
[Pre-Chorus 1: Olivia Rodrigo & Joshua Bassett]
After all is said and done
I can’t just pretend I’m movin’ on
Is it just a part we’re playin’?
‘Cause it don’t feel like we’re fakin’
[Chorus: Joshua Bassett, Olivia Rodrigo & Both]
And when we’re underneath the lights
My heart’s no longer broken
For a moment, just for a moment, ayy
When we’re singin’ side by side
There’s so much left unspoken
For a moment, just for a moment
A moment in love
A moment in love, ah
But is a moment enough?
[Verse 2: Joshua Bassett & Olivia Rodrigo]
Way, way back then
Always dreamed it’s you and me ’til the end
Now, we can’t play pretend
And I’m scared to talk to my best friend, mmm
[Pre-Chorus 2: Olivia Rodrigo & Joshua Bassett]
Should I stay or let you go?
Will ya love me when the curtains close?
Is it just a part we’re playin’?
‘Cause it don’t feel like we’re fakin’
[Chorus: Olivia Rodrigo & Joshua Bassett, Joshua Bassett]
When we’re underneath the lights
My heart’s no longer broken
For a moment, just for a moment (Just for a moment)
When we’re singin’ side by side
There’s so much left unspoken
For a moment, just for a moment
A moment in love
A moment in love, oh
But is a moment enough?
[Bridge: Olivia Rodrigo]
And maybe your heart still stops when you see me
Maybe it’s worth another try, better place, better time
[Chorus: Joshua Bassett, Olivia Rodrigo & Both]
When we’re underneath the lights
My heart’s no longer broken
For a moment, just for a moment (Just for a moment)
When we’re singin’ side by side
There’s so much left unspoken
For a moment, just for a moment
A moment in love
A moment in love (Just for a moment, yeah)
But is a moment enough?
[Outro: Olivia Rodrigo & Joshua Bassett]
When we’re underneath the lights
My heart’s no longer broken
For a moment, just for a moment
