A Moment Lost Lyrics

It's only now when words are said
That break my heart in two
I wonder how you can endure
All I've said, all I say to you.

How strong, how brave, how true of you
To bear the hurt I gave
I know it tears your heart in two
All I've said, all I say to you

After all the words are said
After all the dreams we made
Every one a precious one
Every one a summer sun

A moment lost, forever gone
Can never be again,
So know how much it means to me
All you said
All you gave
All your love to me.

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This song strikes me right at the hear. I've just lost my ex-boyfriend. I left him. Although he was very good to me, I knew that his life style and mine couldn't go together. The most painful thing was I still loved him and knew that he loved so much, but I found that didn't want to live my life with him cause we were too different. The best thing I could do was saying goodbye to him, so both of us could go on and find someone else we could live with. This song explains my feeling very well. I'm crying a lot cause I love him. I just love him.
