America - Moment to Moment

Written by Gerry Beckley and Phil Galdston, 1998
Found on Human Nature.

There was a time I knew
All that there was to know
No one could tell me then
I was wrong

I wasn't strong enough
To see where my weakness lay
The world that you hold so tight
Could slip away

And from moment to moment
Your life can change
There's a storm over the horizon
A sea no one can see

Somewhere around the bend
Right when you least expect
Someone can walk away
With no regret

Leaving an empty space
Breaking a sacred trust
All of your shiny dreams
Begin to rust

Yes from moment to moment your life can change
There's a storm over the horizon
The sea you cannot see

Yes from moment to moment
Promise me you'll never change
Promise me you'll stay the same
Promise me you'll never change

Yes from moment to moment your life can change
There's a storm over the horizon
A sea you'll never see

Yes from moment to moment your life can change
There's a light when the sun is rising
A day after today

Promise me you'll never change (promise me you'll never change)
Promise me you'll stay the same (the same)
Promise me you'll never change

Every moment is a shining light
Every moment is the darkest night
Every moment gotta get it right
Every single moment

Every moment is a shining light
Every moment is the darkest night
Every moment gotta get it right

Every moment is a shining light
Every moment is the darkest night
Every moment gotta get it right
Every single moment

Every moment is a shining light
Every moment is the darkest night
Every moment gotta get it right
Every single moment
