For a moment

When the sun sheds its golden hues

And the rows of yellow roses are in bloom

It’s on mornings like these that I feel most at ease

Know there’s not a place that I’d rather be

For the pollen and warmth in the air

And the colors in my brother’s braided hair

And the faraway sounds of the footsteps that bound

Life has never been better than now

Feel my heart like a passerine fly

Catch my breath as I look to the sky

Calm the thoughts that have troubled my mind

Just for a moment, maybe things will be fine

For the first time in years, so it seems

You appear like an ethereal dream

Now I’m drawn to your name like a moth set aflame

And forgiving the ghosts that remain

There you are with your arms open wide

Free my breath as I look to the sky

Just this once I’ll set worry aside

If for a moment, it’ll mean that everything’s fine

For in this little moment, life is alright
