Shawn Phillips - Moments lyrics

Phillips When your world around you crumbles And you know you're going mad And everyone around you Tries to say it's not so bad But your eyes are seeing clearly What your mind cannot accept And the visions start to plague you Once again The visions of the future The delusions you have felt And the soul destroying sorrow That has split your heart acleft And there's no one left to turn to And there's no one left to hold And there's no one left to love That includes yourself So you go out to the basics To the wind or the sea or the sky And you've got the strength and you sense the love But you don't know the reason why And you torture yourself silly With your head held in your hands And you make some sort of peace That lasts awhile But by God there's an answer And it rests inside us all If we take the time to suffer Through the endless painful call For life consists of suffering And life is made of pain And if you do not know what happiness is It's moments The moments of a feeling The moments of a glance The moments that we try to hold In our hearts and in our hands And the moments made by anger And the moments made by awe But The moments made of wonder Count the most So you have your choice of living And you have your choice of d**h And you have your choice of love or hate, but it's you the makes the rest And you have your sphere of being In the circle of your lives And I know that you will find your ways To peace To peace To peace To peace
