Moments in Between

I haven't seen my friends in a long, long time In a long, long time Feels like the world has stopped and I'm losing my mind And I'm losing my mind And the thing about the ballgowns and the parties Is they're great, but I just miss us getting ready In my room, making fools of the night It's the quiet before the storm The deep breath before you jump The sigh of relief after the first time I told you That I loved you in the New York lights And the laughter that ends every fight It's the smile behind my brother's eyes When he tells me 'bout another crazy thing he finds It's the ray of sun that hits my face When I'm in a rush to get someplace It's the moments in between The moments I might not see I know it's been so long since I've held you close Since I've held you close, mm And I hope, I hope you really know I'm never ever letting go The next time we're alone, mm And the thing about the bright light and new cities Is they're great, but not like rain before a movie Pouring down on us two running through It's the quiet before the storm The deep breath before you jump The sigh of relief after the first time you told me That you loved me in the New York lights And the laughter that ends every fight It's the smile behind my brother's eyes When he tells me 'bout another crazy thing he finds It's the ray of sun that hits my face When I'm in a rush to get someplace It's the moments in between The moments that I might not see And I've been thinkin' about the way you dance How it makes me laugh, mm And you know just what to do when I'm blue One look at you, mm And daddy always said it was the little things Maybe it's the way he looks when mama sings And now I know Now I know Mm, yeah, I've been thinkin' about the moments in between Those moments mean the most to me --- Moments in Between - Ruth B.
