Don't Let The Moment Pass Lyrics
This golden day will be mine
For every moment in time
If time should lose her way
A symphony in the night
Of stars that dance in the light
And music far away
They say that love is but a dance
Don't let the music fade away
Don't let the moment pass
Without reason or rhyme
The sweet bouquet of the wine
Will vanish in the air
The innocence of the rose
She leaves where she goes
For all the world to share
Some days when clouds are drifting by
I open my eyes and watch them go
And wonder where they fly
Some nights Orion runs too fast
I look to the stars as if to say
Don't let the moment pass
But soon a golden age is past
Just when it seemed that miracles
Where not too much to ask
And though the world may turn too fast
If it should seem like paradise
Don't let the moment pass
For every moment in time
If time should lose her way
Of stars that dance in the light
And music far away
Don't let the music fade away
Don't let the moment pass
The sweet bouquet of the wine
Will vanish in the air
She leaves where she goes
For all the world to share
I open my eyes and watch them go
And wonder where they fly
I look to the stars as if to say
Don't let the moment pass
Just when it seemed that miracles
Where not too much to ask
If it should seem like paradise
Don't let the moment pass

Don't Let It Show

This song is saying that when you have the chance, don't let it slip away. Don't let the moment pass, 'cause you'll end up regretting that you didn't grap the chance.

Is this even a Parsons song, because I know most of them?

It is a Parsons song, from the Freudania album. Don't know why it's so hard to dig up some info about it, though. Wikipedia does not mention it once, and googling it gives me only a slight mention in some mailing lists.
