I live for the moments. Not the times or the days. I live for the memories When I'm swept away. I live for sweet things Hugs and kisses at night For opening the door for me And turning off the lights I live for porchstep-kisses And stars hung in the sky I live for the wonderful things The ones that get me by I live for actions, not just people I watch what they do A deep head-thrown-back laugh Little things get me through I live for the soft things A bird that flutters by The jumping of a fish The kiss of butterflies I live for the love And for the lovely things I love the thought of fantasy Of kings and of Queens My heart beats for the good times The times of happiness Where all of my anxiety Shrinks away like mist I breathe for the gentle times The rise and fall of a chest For late-night sipping cocktails Until there's nothing left I live for pouring out emotions I didn't think I had And saying I'm upset when I didn't know I was sad I live for the moments And the times of trust When I know they'll last forever Like friendship's loving rust.

I Live For The Moments
I live for the moments. Not the times or the days. I live for the memories When I'm swept away. I live for sweet things Hugs and kisses at night For opening the door for me And turning off the lights I live for porchstep-kisses And stars hung in the sky I live for the wonderful things The ones that get me by I live for actions, not just people I watch what they do A deep head-thrown-back laugh Little things get me through I live for the soft things A bird that flutters by The jumping of a fish The kiss of butterflies I live for the love And for the lovely things I love the thought of fantasy Of kings and of Queens My heart beats for the good times The times of happiness Where all of my anxiety Shrinks away like mist I breathe for the gentle times The rise and fall of a chest For late-night sipping cocktails Until there's nothing left I live for pouring out emotions I didn't think I had And saying I'm upset when I didn't know I was sad I live for the moments And the times of trust When I know they'll last forever Like friendship's loving rust.
