Stolen moments
Stolen moments

If I told you I loved you pretty baby
Would it make up for what they say?
If I hold you and shield you darlin’
Will you linger a while today?

If I hold you and hug you my kissin’ won’t bug you

Those gossips won’t hurt you I’ll never desert you
And someday we’ll find us where people won’t bind us
To the hands of time

I can use more than moments pretty baby
And I know where you steal them from
There are so many things I’ll teach you
And they call me a useless bum

They just chatter and clatter and patter and natter

They titter and twitter their glitter gets bitter
But we’re here I steered it’s weird here those beards dear
Watch the pantomime

 STOLEN MOMENTS  Music – Oliver Nelson

Lyrics – Peggy Stern
 
Stolen moments
Stolen moments

You make choices you know just what the cost is
Then you wait till the bill comes due
All the voices to drown out your losses
But the feeling it stays with you

Stolen moments of pleasure, the mem’ries to treasure

The fun that you had, even tho you were bad
And you knew it would pay at the end of the day
Won’t say I told ya so!

Stolen moments, it’s just an illusion
When you speak of a love affair
Whispered comments creating confusion
With your heart and your soul laid bare

Well, you know what the price is and now you’re on crisis
You played in the game where the rules are the same
Take your time to recover as you dream of your lover
You have yourself to blame


STOLEN MOMENTS
~ You Belong To Her ~
Oliver Nelson

HOW I MISS ALL OUR STOLEN LITTLE MOMENTS

THE MANY TIMES I'M NOT WITH YOU
THEY ARE SUCH PRECIOUS STOLEN MOMENTS
THAT ARE MEANT ONLY FOR US TWO

'CAUSE WHENEVER YOU'RE GONE AND I KNOW YOU'RE NOT HERE

 IT'S SO HARD TO REMEMBER WHEN YOU DISAPPEAR
WITH YOUR FACE ALWAY THERE RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, DEAR
THAT YOU BELONG TO HER

WHY DO WE HAVE TO HAVE STOLEN MOMENTS

WHY CAN'T I ALWAYS HAVE YOU NEAR
HOLDING YOU IN MY ARMS FOREVER
AND I'LL NEVER HAVE ANY FEAR

'CAUSE WHENEVER YOU'RE GONE AND I KNOW YOU'RE NOT HERE

IT'S SO HARD TO REMEMBER WHEN YOU DISAPPEAR
WITH YOUR FACE ALWAY THERE RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, DEAR
THAT YOU BELONG TO HER

I AM TOLD WHEN YOU HAVE STOLEN MOMENTS

IT IS CALLED AN AFFAIR UNFAIR
I DON'T WANT TO HAVE JUST STOLEN MOMENTS
SO BE MINE AND I'LL ALWAYS CARE

'CAUSE WHENEVER YOU'RE GONE AND I KNOW YOU'RE NOT HERE

IT'S SO HARD TO REMEMBER WHEN YOU DISAPPEAR
WITH YOUR FACE ALWAY THERE RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME, DEAR
THAT YOU BELONG TO HER
