Again
Eternal Moments: The Unrepeatable Magic of Love
Lyrics
This couldn't happen again
This situation is unlikely to occur again.
This is that once in a lifetime
Referring to a rare occurrence that happens only once in a lifetime.
This is the thrill divine
Describing the experience as exceptionally thrilling and divine.
What's more, this never happened before
Emphasizing the uniqueness of the current moment.
Though I have prayed for a lifetime
Expressing a long-standing desire or prayer for this moment.
That such as you would suddenly be mine
Desiring the sudden possession of someone special like the listener.
Mine to hold as I"m holding you now and yet never so near
Feeling the joy of having the person close, though it has never felt this near before.
Mine to have when the now and the here disappear
Owning the moment, aware that it might not last when the present disappears.
What matters, dear, for when
Highlighting the significance of the present moment.
This doesn't happen again
Acknowledging the rarity of the current situation and expressing a desire for it to happen again.
We'll have this moment forever
Stating the intention to cherish this moment forever.
But never, never, again
Contrasting the desire for repetition with the acknowledgment that it won't happen again.
Again, this couldn't happen again
Reiterating the improbability of the situation recurring.
This is that once in a lifetime
Re-emphasizing the uniqueness of the experience.
This is the thrill divine
Reiterating the thrilling and divine nature of the moment.
What's more, this never happened before
Repeating the idea that this has never happened before.
Though I have prayed for a lifetime
Repeating the sentiment of a long-held desire for this moment.
That such as you would suddenly be mine
Repeating the desire to suddenly possess someone special.
Mine to hold as I"m holding you now and yet never so near
Reiterating the joy of having the person close, feeling the nearness.
Mine to have when the now and the here disappear
Reiterating the awareness that the present moment may not last.
What matters, dear, for when
Reiterating the importance of the current moment.
This doesn't happen again
Reiterating the rarity and expressing a desire for a repeat.
We'll have this moment forever
Reaffirming the intention to cherish the moment forever.
