(Terry Cashman & Tommy West)
Why has the music stopped?
Where did all the happy people go?
I know they were there, songs everywhere
Only a moment ago
I only blinked my eye...and now the world that I used to know
Is changin' on me...why can't it be
Only a moment ago?
[Chorus:]
Only a moment ago (Only a moment ago)
It was spring and I was singin'
Only a moment ago
I could see where the road would lead
And what tomorrow was bringin'
Hey, Mister Dream-Come-True, why did you go and walk out the door
It all went so fast...why couldn't it last
Only a moment more?
[Chorus]
Why has the music stopped? (Ahh...)
Where did all the happy people go?
I know they were there (Know they were there)
Songs everywhere (Songs everywhere)
Only a moment ago
Why has the music stopped?
