Lyrics

This magic moment, 
So different and so new. 
Like any other. 
Until I kissed you. 
And then it happened. 
It took me by surprise. 
I knew you felt it too, 
By the look in you eyes. 

Sweeter than wine, 
Softer than a summer night. 
The feeling I had inside, 
Whenever I held you tight. 

This magic moment, 
With your lips so close to mine, 
Will last forever, 
Forever till the end of time. 
Whoaaa, whoaaa, whoaaa. 

Sweeter than wine, 
Softer than a summer night. 
The feeling I had inside, 
Whenever I held you tight. 

This magic moment, 
With your lips so close to mine, 
Will last forever, 
Forever till the end of time. 
Whoaaa, whoaaa, whoaaa. 
Whoaaa, whoaaa, whoaaa, whoaaa.
