Lyrics
MEET ME IN THE MOMENT
Mark Patterson © 2022
The bad guy's gone but the memory haunts you
Now you suspect that anyone who wants you
Is setting you up just to shatter your heart again
So you've carved out a safe existence
Keeping love at a healthy distance
Ain't no way to lose if you don't play the game
Well you've heard my past is a trifle checkered
And I'm not proud of my track record
I broke a few rules on the way to finding you
But I don't let those days define me
My mistakes are so far behind me
I look at us now and I say we're about due
Meet me in The Moment
That old cantina where romance awaits
Where I can check my past at the door
And the things you fret about never take place
Where every heart gets a fresh start
For us there's only now
So meet me in The Moment - someway somehow
I know you think it'll end in disaster
And I can't promise love ever after
Just let me waltz you across that old saloon floor
No ghost can cut in and divide us
Not when we've got George Jones to guide us
All you've got to do is stroll through those swingin' doors
Meet me in The Moment
That old cantina where romance awaits
Where I can check my past at the door
And the things you fret about never take place
Where every heart gets a fresh start
For us there's only now
So meet me in The Moment - someway somehow
Meet me in The Moment - someway somehow
Meet me in The Moment - someway somehow
