Moment in a Shadow

Jimmy Webb

[Verse 1]
All my life was full of dreaming
All my dreams were new
Then when I lost you
I felt like dying
I felt like dying, babe

[Verse 2]
Then my hope was quickly fading
That sad, unlucky day
And when you went away
I just stopped trying
I just stopped trying, babe

[Chorus]
But it was
Just a shadow
Just a moment
Just an afternoon of tears
And it was
Just a heartache
Just a raindrop
Just a moment in a shadow
That lasted years

[Verse 3]
I was living
I was dying
I lived and died again
A sad and lonely man
Filled with straw

[Verse 4]
I was drowning
I was falling
I was turning to a stone
I tried to live alone
And then I saw you
And then I saw you, babe

[Chorus]
And it was
Just a shadow
Just a moment
Just an afternoon of tears
And it was
Just a heartache
Just a raindrop
Just a moment in a shadow
That lasted years

[Outro]
Just a moment but it lasted years
It lasted years
It lasted years
Just a moment but it lasted years
It lasted years
It lasted years
