The Moment Slipped Away (feat. Brian Bauers) feat. Brian Bauers

歌詞

She's a famous actress Movies and TV I recognize her as we climb The stairs of the IRT We cross the street together We're moving up Broadway I'm trying to come up with something Clever I can say About how I love her work And what it means to me How in her most recent film She acted brilliantly Maybe she'll think I'm stupid Maybe this'll make her day But she disappeared into the crowd And The Moment Slipped Away He works the wards of Bellevue Hospital Mail Delivery For two years every weekday morning He said hello to me We'd joke about the local teams The weather of the day Though there were many other things I really wanted to say You see, he wasn't like the rest of us It was a struggle for him to walk And you had to concentrate really hard Just to understand him talk I wanted to ask him "Where do you get the courage To come to work each day?" But I quit that job I moved along And The Moment Slipped Away Kind words don't move the earth But if it can improve your self worth Why do I let these moments pass me by Instead I'm quick to judge And I'm quick to blame I'm quick to criticize Quick to maim It's hard to change But I'll try Oh I'll try So maybe it's your best friend Or the next stranger you see Maybe it's your neighbor Maybe it's you Maybe it's me Who needs to hear encouragement To make it through the day Who needs to hear whatever kind words You might have to say It doesn't matter where you're going Or where you have been 'Cause right now is the perfect moment For us to begin To appreciate each other In new and different ways Oh please don't let another golden Moment Slip Away Appreciate each other More and more each day Oh please don't let another golden Moment Slip Away
