Momentary Thief Lyrics

Well I never won you over
I just caught you on a good day...
We were laughing in the back
Of an old city taxi
With no mention of my borrowed time
Just the glow of the whiskey
And the holiday lights

Well there's no need to name this
Because we're just going to call it a day...
So you can run out in the front yard
And wave goodbye to the plane...

But I remember the corner
The bar and the moment
That I came un-tethered and fell
Into that scene from my favorite movie
Yeah you know the one...

Well, I'll tell you what
I'll save you the trouble of running away
Yeah I'll tell you what
I'll save you the trouble of running away
Yeah I'm already gone out the door
And I stole this moment for me
This moment for me....

Well you're no kind of contrast
To all my somber ways
We may as well have a picnic darlin'
Out in the driving, pouring rain
But I'll just carry on
Pretend that's just how I'm inclined
So you better grab a hold of something
Steady, steady, 'cause I'm cutting the line...

But I remember your shoulder
Your breath and the moment
That I came un-tethered and danced
Into that dream, the one where you kiss me
And then the camera flashed...

Well, I'll tell you what
I'll save you the trouble of running away
Yeah I'll tell you what
I'll save you the trouble of running away
Yeah I'm already gone out the door
And I stole this moment for me
This moment for me, this moment for me
Indelible and bright....
