John Hiatt - Stolen Moments Lyrics
I used to drink a lot in those days you seeYa, thats the way the wind blowsThese days the only bar I ever seeHas got lettuce and tomatoesI get pumped up in the back of my mindStart thinking those days were the best of timesBut I never look forward to looking backNow I see a little daylight coming through the cracksDont you know were living in stolen momentsYou steal enough it feels like were stopping timeThese days are gold were living in stolen momentsJust grab a holdWell some guy told you that you couldnt danceAnd you been carrying that foreverIm the kinda fella needs a, a second chanceCmon baby lets boo-ga-loo togetherI see you over there just clinging to the wallCause they told you like ivy, you were born to crawlBut you kept looking up, girl, and I know whyCause you knew some day you were gonna touch the skyBaby, you know were living in stolen momentsYou steal enough it feels like were stopping timeThese days are gold were living in stolen momentsJust grab a hold and feel your wayThese days are yours and mineWell, I couldnt dream this life Im livinSomehow we just survived and every waste of time forgivenNow Im out in the backyard leaning on a treeAnd I have no way of knowingCant lean too hard thats my philosophyMan that tree is growingMaybe Ill never grow up to be straight and tallBut you can lean on me, baby, I wont fallMaybe in the deal I can learn to bendLearn to listen like that tree, babyLike a good friendWell dont you know were living in stolen momentsYou steal enough it feels like were stopping timeThese days are gold were living in stolen momentsJust grab hold and feel these days are yours and mineDont ya know were living in stolen momentsYou steal enough it feels like were stopping timeThese days are gold were living in stolen momentsJust grab hold and feel your wayThese days are yours and mine
