[Cornelius:]
It only takes a moment
For your eyes to meet and then

Your heart knows in a moment
You will never be alone again
I held her for an instant

But my arms felt sure and strong
It only takes a moment
To be loved a whole life long...

Clerk:
I missed a few words back there, Mr. Hackl.
Right after 'it only'...


[All in docket:]
...Takes a moment!

But his arms felt sure and strong
It only takes a moment


[Mrs. Molloy:]
He held me for an instant
But his arms felt safe and strong

It only takes a moment
To be loved a whole life long


[Cornelius:]
And that is all
That love's about


[Mrs. Molloy:]
And we'll recall when time runs out


[Both:]
That it only took a moment

To be loved a whole life long!
