Lyrics Moment - Nate Ruess

Moment

Well, you were burning up the sky
Looking for a light when you saved me
I was convinced no one would take me
You turned and took me by the hand
But now that look in your eyes
All of your sighs are saying «Go, please»
«Leave me alone and leave you lonely»
It looks as though we’ve reached the end
Well, I’m fine
I just need a moment
I’m alright right here on the floor
Well, I’m fine
I just need a moment to cry
And when I think about the ways
That you never waste your breath to say you love me
How you always held your lost loves above me
As you kept your other hand on the door
Yet I’ll admit I might miss
Every scar and every wish that we’d make
But our wishes were nothing but ways
To act as if we could use the change
Well, maybe one of these days
We’ll cross each other on a train to our new lives
We could talk about the old times
And how we’re glad we made it out alive
But for now I’ll sit and drink
As I think about the night that your father died
And I said I’d never leave your side
We once swore we could defeat this
Therefore, please excuse this little bit of weakness, oh
Well, I’m fine
I just need a moment of your time
To get all my things and let go
Well, I’m fine
I just need a moment to say goodbye
Well, Lord give me a reason
C’mon, show me you love me
I don’t want to let it go
Just to watch it fly
And Lord, give me a moment
Any of it, show me
I don’t want to feel it
I don’t wanna watch it go by
Because I’m fine
I just need a moment
I’m alright right here on the floor
Well, I’m fine
I just need a moment to say I’m fine
I need a moment
I’m alright here on the floor
Well, I’m fine
I just need a moment to cry
