Lyrics Moments and Whatnot - Lloyd Cole

Moments and Whatnot

Mostly I
Mostly I prefer to live in the future
In the future
I’m here and now
But I’m not really here in the moment
In the moment
In my defense
You saw me coming
You walked into the room and I
I shouldn’t wonder
In another time
In a godforsaken far-flung place
You and I and we had a moment
We had a moment
But we couldn’t stay
And before you could say, «The next day»
You had been consigned to the future
To the future
In my defense
You saw me coming
You walked into the room and I
I shouldn’t wonder
I shouldn’t wonder
But I do
I shouldn’t care
But I care about you
I shouldn’t hope
For one shiny day
I know, I
I shouldn’t wonder
In my defense
You saw me coming
You walked into the room and I
I shouldn’t wonder
I shouldn’t wonder
But I do
I shouldn’t care
But I care about you
I shouldn’t hope
For one shiny day
I know, I
I shouldn’t wonder
