"Moments Like This" lyrics

These are wild times, where so many blue skies turn gray
At the end of each night we get ready for work the next day
Don't you ever lose heart, keep the fire burning ablaze
And don't call me crazy, it's just the way I was raised

It's moments like this, that I'm gonna miss
When I'm dead and gone and I can't kiss my kids
Will they look up to the sky and think about me
These are the ways I've been spendin' my days
Thinkin' weird thoughts and things that amaze me
About life and the way I've been able to live it so free
It's moments like this
That are priceless to me
Yea-yeah, Yea-yeah, Yea-yeah
Priceless to me
Yea-yeah, Yea-yeah

I heard the screen door as it slammed all the hours of the day
It's so hot outside, I don't move, I'm just meltin' in place
Possessions are lost and gone without so much as a trace
Time keeps on tickin' each second replaced

I can't imagine it now
Didn't want to think of it then
Thought I'd resisted some how
But I was wrong again
We all hide from truth
The truth is we'll see
We are all beautiful, yet deadly afraid

It's moments like this, that I'm gonna miss
When I'm dead and gone and I can't kiss my kids
Will they look up to the sky and think about me
These are the ways I've been spendin' my days
Thinkin' weird thoughts and things that amaze me
About my life and the way I've been able to live it so free
It's moments like this
That are priceless to me
Yea-yeah, Yea-yeah, Yea-yeah
Priceless to me
Yea-yeah, Yea-yeah
Priceless to me
Yea-yeah, Yea-yeah, Yea-yeah
Priceless to me
Yea-yeah, Yea-yeah
