[Verse 1]
Yesterday, as I talked with a friend in town
I forgot to remember that you'd gone
And for a moment I found my lips smiling
But a moment isn't very long

[Verse 2]
And last night as I danced with a stranger
And she held her cheek close to my own
For a moment I almost forgot you
But a moment isn't very long

[Chorus]
Every now and then
I get a chance to smile
But those every now and thens
Just last a little while

[Verse 3]
And tonight I've got a date with a new love
But I know I'd do just as well at home
For a moment maybe I could forgot you
But a moment isn't very long
But a moment isn't very long
