Moments Like This

Lyrics

[Intro] Pete Miser Brooklyn, Portland Kinfolk life [Hook] Do you recall what changed it all? Where you stood when the towers started to fall? Can you describe the air the sky? If I wanted you to tell me would you bother to try? [Verse 1] Most days we play with infinite time Operating in the boundaries of limited minds I'm not trying to be funny or crack on folks I'm the same I blow time like cigarette smoke I can burn off an hour on the Huffington Post Waste a day trying to forward some email joke When you're in it, minute-to-minute minutes seem cheap Time is money but time is harder to keep [Pre-Hook] Little moments like this Little moments like that Little moments like this Little moments like that [Hook] Do you recall what changed it all? Where you stood when the towers started to fall? Can you describe the air, the sky? If I wanted you to tell me would you bother to try? [Verse 2] Little moments slip by like, all of the time But I don't have to try some stay in my mind I had a moment like that just a few months back Late at night, car parked by the railroad tracks Quick call to my mom for that pedestrian check in We do this all the time and I barely pay attention "I'm picking up some friends from the train let's keep it brief Am I sitting? I'm sitting, why am I gritting my teeth?" She hit me with the bad news bad as it gets Doctors said she only had six months left Came from out of nowhere she was fine last week We were hanging in New York dodging cabs in the streets Told me it was cancer, I went quiet for once Calculating all the moments you can fit in six months Stuttering and stunned as the train arrived With tears welling up in my eyes We agreed to talk again when I could be alone I could see my friends approaching as I hung up the phone I handed Oliver the keys when he asked "What's wrong?" Only seven days and she was gone [Pre-Hook] Little moments like that Little moments like this Little moments like that Little moments like this [Hook] Do you recall what changed it all? Where you stood when the towers started to fall? Can you describe the air, the sky? If I wanted you to tell me would you bother to try? Do you recall what changed it all? Where you stood when the towers started to fall? Can you describe the air, the sky? If I wanted you to tell me would you bother to try? [Bridge] Little moments like that Little moments like this Little moments like that Little moments like this [Outro: Beth Hiller] Hey, Pete, it's your mom Um, I need to talk to you, it's very important And uh, I'd appreciate a call back on my home phone Um, I think you remember the number It's very important Thanks
