Lyrics
Moments (Macdona) (c) Sparkling Wine Music 1978
Moments never last long enough to say
why we should want to live another day,
or why some people have to walk their weary paths alone.
Another time, another place where we may meet
another death upon another lonely street,
you find a quiet hotel room where you may die, alone.
Oh but you've been seen
through your hotel window
from the opposite room
where no-one can reach you,
it's just a moment away......
you've got the gun to your head.
Moments never last long enough to say
why we should want to live another day
or why some people have to walk their weary paths alone
Oh but you've been seen
by someone who loves you,
he knows all your life,
and he's longing to reach you,
he's just a moment away.......
so why not give in.
Moments never last long enough to say
how your life can change in every way
if you ask to live within his love
today...........
today..........
today.
Moments never last long enough to say
why we should want to live another day,
or why some people have to walk their weary paths alone.
Another time, another place where we may meet
another death upon another lonely street,
you find a quiet hotel room where you may die, alone.
Oh but you've been seen
through your hotel window
from the opposite room
where no-one can reach you,
it's just a moment away......
you've got the gun to your head.
Moments never last long enough to say
why we should want to live another day
or why some people have to walk their weary paths alone
Oh but you've been seen
by someone who loves you,
he knows all your life,
and he's longing to reach you,
he's just a moment away.......
so why not give in.
Moments never last long enough to say
how your life can change in every way
if you ask to live within his love
today...........
today..........
today.
