Stolen Moments Lyrics by John Hiatt

Stolen Moments Lyrics

    I used to drink a lot in those days you see
    Ya, that's the way the wind blows
    These days the only bar i ever see
    Has got lettuce and tomatoes

    I get pumped up in the back of my mind
    Start thinking those days were the best of times
    But i never look forward to looking back
    Now i see a little daylight coming through the cracks

    Don't you know we're living in stolen moments
    You steal enough it feels like we're stopping time
    These days are gold we're living in stolen moments
    Just grab a hold

    Well some guy told you that you couldn't dance
    And you been carrying that forever
    I'm the kinda fella needs a, a second chance
    C'mon baby let's boo-ga-loo together

    I see you over there just clinging to the wall
    Cause they told you like ivy, you were born to crawl
    But you kept looking up, girl, and i know why
    Cause you knew some day you were gonna touch the sky

    Baby, you know we're living in stolen moments
    You steal enough it feels like we're stopping time
    These days are gold we're living in stolen moments
    Just grab a hold and feel your way
    These days are yours and mine

    Well, i couldn't dream this life i'm livin'
    Somehow we just survived and every waste of time forgiven

    Now i'm out in the backyard leaning on a tree
    And i have no way of knowing
    Can't lean too hard that's my philosophy
    Man that tree is growing

    Maybe i'll never grow up to be straight and tall
    But you can lean on me, baby, i won't fall
    Maybe in the deal i can learn to bend
    Learn to listen like that tree, baby
    Like a good friend

    Well don't you know we're living in stolen moments
    You steal enough it feels like we're stopping time
    These days are gold we're living in stolen moments
    Just grab hold and feel these days are yours and mine

    Don't ya know we're living in stolen moments
    You steal enough it feels like we're stopping time
    These days are gold we're living in stolen moments
    Just grab hold and feel your way
    These days are yours and mine
