The Moments Lost


I lost a moment yesterday while shopping at the store
And when I searched to get it back, I lost a little more ...
I saw them flying in the wind and reached up in the air,
Yet when I looked inside my hand, there were no moments there...

The moments lost are like clouds in the sky
You enjoy them when they're there, then they float on by

I thought I saw them in a stream as I stood on the shore
I tried to catch them but I lost the ones I had before -
They floated down the winding creek and soon were out of sight
I realized what I'd lost and I began to cry ...

The moments lost are like water in your hand
They will slip away even if you hold - as tight as you can

If you miss them when they happen, they will never come again
You can't hold or possess them once they're already spent

The moments lost are like the air that you breathe
You take it in and hold it, then it has to be released

I sat and pondered what to do as time marched through the day,
And as I sat there deep in thought a lot more slipped away...
And while I wondered what went wrong they swept back like a breeze...
For all the moments that I lost had changed to memories...
