If I could go back to one moment in time,
And stop the world from turning just by closing my eyes,
Forever, dear, you'd still be mine,
The moment just before goodbye.

If I could go back to when you were here,
I'd try to find the reasons for all of your tears.
Oh, how my heart longs, oh how it cries
For that moment, just before goodbye.

You may go, but they will stay:
The memories that we made along the way.
Like our first kiss, our baby's first cry,
These are always with me 'til the day I die.

So if I could go back to one moment in time,
When we were still together, your hand in mine.
I'd say: "I love you" ten thousand times,
The moment just before goodbye.

Instrumental break.

I'd say: "I love you" one last time,
The moment just before goodbye.

The moment just before goodbye.
