From the recording Moment
Lyrics
His car slid wide
The moon jumped up from the road
The rain moved out
It was clear and a little bit cold
Everything he loved
Rushed him all at once
He settled at the bottom of the hill
For a moment in time
His mind held the moment still
Part way numb she
Stared at the backyard pool
He’d gone once before
This time his car was full
The front was building in
She would breathe again
As soon as she found the will
Sometimes she’d just like not to feel it
Sometimes he’d like to let it ride
His gut went weak
The chief said we’re letting you go
Sorry for the sudden notice
But it came from somewhere above
He had to let it in
He would start again
As soon as he took that pill
He had to let it in
He would start again
As soon as he found the will
For a moment in time his mind held the moment still
For a moment in time her mind held the moment still
For a moment in time their minds
Held the moment still
