The Moment - Atomic Tom

Walking by the busy set

Where she is dressed

The silhouette

Of innocence

And so I slow my pace

To take it all in.

Then someone calls

«We're rolling sound.»

And «ready lights»

The camera frames,

A frail disguise

As she feels the mark,

And make me want her.

I’m frozen in place.

She reveals the fear on my face,

And I know she can see right through me.

I wanna hold on.

I wanna hold on to this.

Waking up from half a dream

That feels so real.

The image fading,

Dissipating.

So I fight the day

To say last goodbyes.

And when she’s gone I spend my time

Retracing lines.

The curve, the shapes,

Her name in lines

Just reminds me how

I’ll never have her.

(Have her)

I wanna hold on.

(Wanna hold on)

I wanna hold on to this.

(Wanna hold on)

The moment has come.

(Wanna hold on, hold on)

The moment comes down to this.

(Wanna hold on, hold on)

It comes down to this.

That kind of girl

whose secret world

You’re never invited.

And if you had to decide

To fall asleep or stay in line

Wake up.

Wake up.

Wake up.

Make up your mind.

I wanna hold…

(Hey hey hey)

I wanna hold on…

(Hey hey hey)

Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh

I wanna hold on

I wanna hold on to this.

The moment has come.

And the moment comes down to this.

It comes down to this.

Hey.

Hey.

Hey.

And the moment has come.
