Moment
Blu-Swing Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Take it all back
Memory lives on by the hearts you have touched
A tear will be shed for every day that I missed
I know you are here every second it rains
Hand on my shoulder for when my heart pains
You needed me but I failed to be there
I wish I could take it all fucking back
Surrender it all just to say goodbye
Cause through it all you stood there by my side
Sincerely wish I was a better kid
Wish I could take back everything that I did
Now you are gone and everything is all wrong
Ascended to heaven where you belong
You mean the world to me
Opened my eyes and now I see
You were too good for this world
And know nothings set is stone
As you rest among the stars
So bring it down
Bring it down
You mean the world to me
Opened my eyes and now I see
You were too good for this world
And know nothings set is stone
As you rest among the stars
You needed me but I failed to be there
I wish I could take it all fucking back
Surrender it all just to say goodbye
Cause through it all you stood there by my side
You were a hero to many
And a saint to all




Never spoke in vain
Loyal even after your fall

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Blu-Swing's song Moment tell the story of a person who has lost someone important to them, and regrets not being there for them when they were alive. The opening line "Take it all back" sets the tone for the song, expressing the deep sense of regret the singer has for not being a better person when their loved one was around. The line "Memory lives on by the hearts you have touched" suggests that the person who has passed away had a positive impact on many lives, leaving a legacy behind them.


The chorus emphasises the singer's feelings of guilt and sorrow: "You needed me but I failed to be there / I wish I could take it all fucking back / Surrender it all just to say goodbye / Cause through it all you stood there by my side". The clear implication here is that the person who has died was there for the singer when they needed them, but the singer was unable to return the favour.


The song ends with a sense of resignation and acceptance, with the lines "You were too good for this world / And know nothings set is stone / As you rest among the stars / So bring it down / Bring it down". The singer acknowledges that their loved one is gone, but takes comfort in the idea that they are now at peace and no longer suffering.
