Belle & Sebastian So In The Moment
[Verse 1]
Lime-coloured leaves are bending and blowing
In the springtime of life
Lime-coloured leaves are bending and knowing
And I bet I'll survive
Survival is hardly the point
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Oh, you're my kind of daydream, I'll foster ambitions
Break down inhibitions 'til realisations take over
And wishes convert into kisses galore
And I'll dream no more
[Chorus 1]
I'll be so in the moment, putting your hand in mine
So in the moment, finding gold in the silver mine
So in the moment, not a thorn on thе vine
So in the moment, of rosеs in the summertime
When the old times are fading fast
The pleasures will come at last
I'll take you for my own and I won't let go
[Verse 2]
Lime-coloured leaves still bending and blowing
With a walk in the park
Arm-and-arm with my true love, the roses have faded
Bad choice of remark
Complacency strikes at the heart
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now we're balancing upon the curb, please don't say another word
Way down below, there's still sharks in the road
I want to jump in like Paul McCartney and Wings
'I feel like letting go'
[Chorus 2]
I'll be so in the moment, begging your forgiveness
So in the moment, then saying I couldn't care less
So in the moment, my darling, don't get upset
So in the moment, you know I'm only joking
It's a long way to yesterday
No matter what I do or say
It keeps getting further away
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Well, now, all the things I meant to say, I think I'll say them anyway
The seasons, the fallen leaves, the curve of time and all it weaves
Now flood through my mind, I want to make you my wife
For the rest of my life
[Refrain]
I am so in the moment
So in the moment
So in the moment
So in the moment
So in the moment
[Outro]
Wrestling with our love's demise, we're out of the mire
(So in the moment)
Making up for lost time, floating dreams of desire
(So in the moment)
Got our medications and the bus is for hire
(So in the moment)
Say 'I do' and say 'I will jump into the fire'
Don't you let me down again
