It Only Takes a Moment

Hello Dolly Hello Dolly

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 Jackl
Right after 'it only

All:
Takes a moment!
For your eyes to meet and then
Your heart knows in a moment
You will never be alone again

He held her for an instant
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!
