The Moments I'm Missing

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments I'm missing

I had a dream

I had a dream when I was only five

To work at a bar, I wanted to see over the other side

And I had a friend, her name was Fern and she had a blue bike

So we'd ride through the streets

And I would sleep over on Saturday nights

Then I went to school

My family moved to a village near by

At thirteen years old I started drawing black under my eyes

Cos I met a boy, first time I kissed him on the lip was the last

Cos I got afraid when everyone there started moving too fast

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments I never took in

When I was just standing there wishing

I could grow up and my life would be different

These are the moments I miss

These are the moments

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments

Cos I've been so caught in the motion

Forgetting right where my home is

These are the moments I'm missing

In the back of her mum's car on the way to the old bars, yeah

Raising my anxiety using her sisters ID, yeah

In a skintight short skin, sixteen and we danced till our feet hurt

But I had a dream, I had a goal

Got a guitar and a camera phone

Then over the time I started racking up numbers online

At the end of July I met somebody who changed my life

And then I'm signed and falling in love for the very first time

But that fucked me up so then I had issues with falling in love

These are the moments I'm missing

There are the moments I never took in

When I was just standing there wishing

I could grow up and my life would be different

These are the moments I miss

These are the moments

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments

Cos I've been so caught in the motion

Forgetting right where my home is

These are the moments I'm missing

Now these are the moments I'm missing

Gone in the snow, nothing there for me

I had to let go, found the world on my own

Wondering, looking for where to call home

With the beat of a guitar and a bunch of flowers to endlessly roam

Never did have a car, but I got a few friends to help me along

Then I met a few girls in the City of Angels

Thought they all were the one, but they all ran away

So I've been writing these songs all about loving, about finding

Oh I'm alone, I don't know where to go, all I know is...

These are the moments I'm missing

Cos I've been so caught in the motions

Forgotten right where my home is

These are the moments I'm missing

Cos I've been so caught in the motions

Forgotten where my home is

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments I'm missing

These are the moments I'm missing
