Just For A Second [Verse 1] Just another stop downtown, Same old roads I’ve wandered ’round. Reached the door, you walked outside, Stopped my world in just one stride. Turned around to catch one more view, My heart got there before I knew. One deep breath, one passing face… Gone without a single trace. [Pre-Chorus] Funny how an ordinary day, Can steal your breath and drift away. [Chorus] Just for a second, I thought it was you, That old worn jacket, faded blue. Same slow walk I’d know so well, Like time forgot its little spell. I almost reached to hold you tight, Like every wrong had turned out right. Then you turned… the moment flew… I could’ve sworn that man was you. [Verse 2] Kept on walking, head hung low, Nowhere left I had to go. Funny what one passing glance, Can do without a second chance. Every doorway, every light, Pulled me back for one more night. One familiar step, one smile… Brought you back for just a while. [Pre-Chorus] Maybe that’s the way love stays, Hidden in our ordinary days. [Chorus] Just for a second, I thought it was you, That old worn jacket, faded blue. Same slow walk I’d know so well, Like time forgot its little spell. I almost reached to hold you tight, Like every wrong had turned out right. Then you turned… the moment flew… I could’ve sworn that man was you. [Bridge] Some say memories fade away, Some just wait for one more day. One familiar face goes by, And suddenly they’re back nearby. Not for long… just long enough, To remind you what love was. Then the crowd steals every clue… Leaving only thoughts of you. [Final Chorus] Just for a second, I thought it was you, That old worn jacket, faded blue. Same slow walk I’d know so well, Like time forgot its little spell. I almost reached to hold you tight, Like every wrong had turned out right. Then you turned… the moment flew… I could’ve sworn that man was you. (Outro) Just for a second… I thought it was you… Just for a second… I believed it too.
