Analysis of A Moment in Time
As I gaze upon the comets path
My heart is filled with pain
Knowing she can see it too
My soul begins to rain
I pray she sees the path I see
Looking upon the stars
The comet streaks across the sky
I dream she's not that far
From were I'm at I'm all alone
She may be gazing too
A moment we will share
Together without you
As you look up in the sky
You should know that I can see
The time that we've been missing
This time thats dear to me
This space that comes between us
Time will only tell
The trueth of how I feel inside
Is why the comet fell
