Moments Like This Lyrics - Alison Krauss & Union Station

What a dying world redefines 

The reasons we strive to exist 

Refrain control or we're bound to learn 

The meaning of moments like this 

'Cause in the peaceful lull, the quiet spell 

Seduced by the promise of bliss 

We soon forget that nothing's happened yet 

We're living for moments like this 

So hold me, whisper gently 

This is what we live for, how we learn who we are 

It defines us, ever reminding us 

That life never is more precious than this 

From the dim light in the greyness 

The aim of the soul tends to miss 

But then the clouds catch fire and the oceans pitch 

We're made for the moments like this 

So hold me, whisper gently 

That there's nothing to fear, you'll always be near 

To remind me, stand behind me 

Although life can be rough, we can never give up 

It's in our power to face the storm 

With all its fury and madness 

The flash of thunder will be harnessed 

With the longing and sadness, the clouds will gray 

Hold me, whisper gently 

This is what we live for, how we learn who we are 

It defines us, ever reminding us 

That life never is more precious than this 

So hold me, whisper gently 

That there's nothing to fear, you'll always be near 

To remind me, stand behind me 

Although life can be rough, we can never give up
