For A Moment
Melody:
Okay, get a grip, get a hang of this flipper
It's like slipping two feet into one big huge slipper.
This way is left, but which way is right?
Oh, now I'll be circling in in circles all night
Oh, so this is forward. No problem.
I can't believe I can do this and more
To swim in the sea like I walk on the shore
Out of my shell, not closed up like a clam
Look out sea, this is me, here I am
For a moment all of me
Is alive and at home in the sea
I'm swirling and twirling, so graceful and grand
Not stubbing my toes getting stuck in the sand
For a moment life is cool
I'm a splash in the world's biggest pool
This is more than my thoughts ever thought it could be
For a moment, just a moment, lucky me
Ariel:
If only for one moment
The sea wouldn't be a mystery
But why did you have to go?
Melody:
Everything's newer, and brighter and bluer
And truer to life than before
Watch me soar
For a moment I can shine
Got a grin and a fin, it works fine
My fingers are wrinkly, I really don't care
If all my curls are curled out of my hair
For a moment I can feel
All the dreams I've been dreaming are real
Wish my mother could hear it, the sea is my song
For a moment, just a moment, I belong
Ariel:
I will find you my darling
And the moment that I do
I'll hold you close, my Melody
And sing the song of the sea with you
(Together)
Ariel: Sing the song of the sea with you
Melody: For a moment, just a moment, I belong
