WHILE IT LASTED written by Sheldon Manoo (1994)

There was a circle around the moon last night

Like the one that’s been around my heart for some time

And yes I still love you strong tonight

Cause my soul’s been released when you were mine

 

And I know that the time that we shared together

Will just be stories in both our memories

But those times I’ll remember forever

Cause you made come through what I held in dreams

 

And now you found the career you sought for so long

And all I’d do is just keep you stagnant

It’s best for us both if we don’t prolong

For there are some things just as important

 

And we’d say goodbye

But it doesn’t mean forever

Maybe we’ll get back together

When the time is right

But if things don’t go as we wish they would

Remember while it lasted, it was good

                (Music)

And if I ever love as strong as this again

I know I’ll never be as young as this again

And if it’s you, you’ll be my best friend

I won’t feel like this is the end

 

And when I’m in my dying moment

And my whole life flashes before me

That mental picture I keep of you and me

Will be the last thing I see

(Solo)

 

Cause it was sweet while it lasted

Our love, passion and desire were connected

We were great while it lasted

Every single moment I felt comforted

(Music)

 

Some things were designed to keep in mind

Like the circle around the moon last night!
