VERSE 1:
This magic moment - so different and so new
Was like any other - until I kissed you
And then it happened - it took me by surprise
I knew that you felt it too - by the look in your eyes

CHORUS:
Sweeter than wine [SWEETER THAN WINE]
Softer than a summer night
[SOFTER THAN A SUMMER NIGHT]
Everything I want I have [EVERYTHING - EVERYTHING]
Whenever I hold you tight

This magic moment [THIS MAGIC MOMENT]
while your lips are close to mine
Will last forever
forever til the end - of - time [THIS MAGIC MOMENT]
O - o - o - o - oh O - o - o - o - oh [THIS MAGIC MOMENT]
O - o - o - oh

[INTERLUDE]

This magic moment [THIS MAGIC MOMENT]
while your lips are close to mine
Will last forever [THIS MAGIC MOMENT]
forever til the end - of - time
