[Verse 1] Yesterday as I talked with a friend in town I forgot to remember that you’d gone For a moment I found myself smilin’ But a moment isn’t very long [Verse 2] An’ last night as I danced with a stranger An’ she held her cheek close to my own For a moment I almost forgot you But a moment isn’t very long [Chorus] Every now an’ then I get a chance to smile But those every now an’ thens just last a little while An’ tonight I’ve got a date with a new love But I know I’d do just as well at home For a moment maybe I could forget you But a moment isn’t very long [Chorus repeat] Every now an’ then I get a chance to smile But those every now an’ thens just last a little while An’ tonight I’ve got a date with a new love But I know I’d do just as well at home For a moment maybe I could forget you But a moment isn’t very long
