This lyric is: #354

Chorus: We can rise above it all,
Though eventually we fall,
Don't know how much time we have to spend,
Just got this moment this moment this moment
This moment this moment this moment
(repeat last 2 lines)

Verse 1:
You know the story 'bout a man with no shoes
Running round singin' the blues
Til he finally found the truth on the street,
Saw a man who didn't have no feet.

I often used to lament and sigh,
bout all my troubles I'd weep and cry,
Then my friend a year after she wed,
Had a seizure and died in bed.

Chorus: We can rise above it all,
Though eventually we fall,
Don't know how much time we have to spend,
Just got this moment this moment this moment
This moment this moment this moment,
(Repeat last 2 lines)

Verse 2:
Life drains the passion from romance,
We get together when we get the chance,
Meter's running and it drives me mad
But I wouldn't trade a moment of what we've had.

I wish I really knew where it all ends,
Are we reborn, all our sins cleansed,
Or just absorbed into the universe,
Ah, being human's such a blessing and a curse!

Chorus: We can rise above it all,
Though eventually we fall,
Don't know how much time we have to spend,
Just got this moment this moment this moment
This moment this moment this moment
(repeat last 2 lines)

Verse 3:
Took a cruise across the sea,
A hurricane washed over me,
I see it as a second chance,
To change the rhythm in my dance.

I guess this call's my 9-1-1,
My waking life has just begun,
I see the world through different eyes,
Will I bewilder or be wise?

Chorus:
We can rise above it all,
Though eventually we fall,
Don't know how much time we have to spend,
Just got this moment this moment this moment
This moment this moment this moment
Ah this moment...this moment
Ah this moment...this moment!
