If Only for the Moment Songtext
von Missing Persons

You try to live up to what others believe
′Til you conquer all your fears and just find what you need
In the time that it takes to settle for less
You could have done with what you thought would be best

You set your ideals with the truth that you see
Nothing turns out quite the same as you thought it would be
Counting the times that you've said what you mean
All the reasons to forget what you want to believe


And you know what I′m thinking now
If only for the moment
And you know what I'm thinking now
If only for the moment

All that you think has meaning for you
Excuses are many when you seek what is true
You live in your thoughts and believe you are right
'Til what you foresee is brought into sight

You set your ideals with the truth that you see
Nothing turns out quite the same as you thought it would be
Counting the times that you′ve said what you mean
All the reasons to forget what you want to believe


All the reasons to forget what you want to believe
All the reasons to forget what you want to believe
All the reasons to forget what you want to believe
All the reasons to forget what you want to believe
