Moment Lyrics

I wish this day could last forever

I wish this moment could last for a lifetime

But time keeps on slipping away

I wish I never had to say goodbye

Time is a funny thing, ain't it?

Like it's our own tail, we chase it

Patience is a lost art, living by the minute

Never getting that as we run in place we become complacent

From day to day we hardly realize

What passed us by, always a surprise

A year passed in the blink of an eye

Maybe it's time to slow down and think twice

So much is left behind

each moment replays in our minds

And each time you try to reach back

You drift away into a clouded past

They say time is an illusion

It's more of a delusion that causes confusion

Hindsight through a blind eye

Everybody needs peace of mind, I need to find mine

Cuz I never could apologize

For all my sins and all my lies

To everyone I left behind

I wanna say sorry

I know I'm not a perfect man

I know there's blood that's on my hands

I wish that I could make amends

Cuz in the end

I wish this day could last forever

I wish this moment could last for a lifetime

But time keeps on slipping away

I wish I never had to say goodbye

As I stand here with you, years ago

And watch in slo-mo as each moment unfolds

I wish I could reach out and hold you close

And tell you I'll miss you, and I'll never lose hope

But the pain that I feel is real

Even though long ago I thought I healed

And maybe it means that this day never left

And we're still here

I gaze upon myself as I reflect

As I come to terms and the dots connect

I understand death is not the end

And you could never truly lose a friend

So when you unwrap the present and see

Everything is how it was meant to be

So as you frame all of those memories

On the wall, rest assured they will never leave
