If Only For a Moment

I know you, but you don't know me
I see you everyday
Looking back in the mirror
With that same broken heart
That brings me to you,
That asks me to say
Could I have this dance
If only for a moment
Could I take us both away
From the past where we're living
If only while the music plays

A song without memories
No reminders of what's been lost
Just the sound of familiar laughter
We've forgotten for so long
That could be heard by two that needed
Time to leave behind the past
If only for a moment
We could share a simple glance
And I could take us both away
If you take my hand and dance
