One moment in time - How I love this song!
Whitney Houston simply gives me goosebumps singing this song. Great lyrics. Great composition.
When I first heard this song over the radio many years ago, I was madly searching around for the title and the lyrics. It was a case of love at first listen. I even made a music video of this song with my students, for the students of EVSS, and had it shown during a school event. The students simply loved it too. To say that the song is powerful is an understatement.
It is incredibly moving, tremendously inspirational, invoking that `I can do it' emotions and attitude. What more can you ask from a song... Enjoy this version which had been viewed by more than 32000 netizens.
One Moment in Time
Each day I live
I want to be
A day to give
The best of me
I'm only one
But not alone
My finest day
Is yet unknown
I broke my heart
Fought every gain
To taste the sweet
I face the pain
I rise and fall
Yet through it all
This much remains
I want one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity
I've lived to be
The very best
I want it all
No time for less
I've laid the plans
Now lay the chance
Here in my hands
Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will feel
I will feel eternity
You're a winner for a lifetime
If you seize that one moment in time
Make it shine
Give me one moment in time
When I'm more than I thought I could be
When all of my dreams are a heartbeat away
And the answers are all up to me
Give me one moment in time
When I'm racing with destiny
Then in that one moment of time
I will be
I will be
I will be free
I will be
I will be free
