I'm half remembered half way across the world, twice removed from my second home, the shadow of a ghost in an old haunt, with a lease on life, 'cause I can't afford to own, When being young starts getting old, a new place saves face or so I'm told, I'll be the new kid on an old block, a chalk outline on a playground blacktop, I'm just a moment, so don't let me pass you by, we could be a story in the morning, but we'll be a legend tonight, I'm just a moment, so don't let me pass you by, they can speak our names in a dead language, 'cause you and I, we're alive, but just for a moment, I'm twice the man that I thought I was yesterday, half the time I'm a world away, a flicker of a soul casting silhouettes, on the face of a town that could not get me to stay, and when the spark's gone, former lovers, are just looking for a bus to throw me under, I'll be the new kid on an old block, a chalk outline on a playground black top, I'm just a moment, so don't let me pass you by, we could be a story in the morning, but we’ll be a legend tonight, I'm just a moment, so don't let me pass you by, they can speak our names in a dead language, 'cause you and I, we're alive, but just for a moment, When being young starts getting old, a new place saves face or so I'm told, I'll be the new kid on an old block, a chalk outline on a playground blacktop, I'm just a moment, so don't let me pass you by, we could be a story in the morning, but a legend tonight, I'm just a moment, so don't let me pass you by, they can speak our names in a dead language, 'cause you and I, we're alive, but just for a moment
