This is the Moment
David Hasselhoff Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is the moment
This is the day
When I send all of my doubts and demons
On their way
Every endeavor
I have made ever
Is coming into play
Is here and now today

This is the moment
This is the time
When the momentum and the moment
Are in rhyme
Give me this moment
This precious chance
I'll gather up my past
And make some sense at last

This is the moment
When all I've done
All of the dreaming and scheming and screaming become one
This is the day
See it sparkle and shine
When all I've lived for
Becomes mine

For all these years
I've faced the world alone
And now the time has come to prove to them I've made it on my own

This is the moment
My final test
Destiny beckoned
I never reckoned second best
I won't look down
I must not fall
This is the moment
The sweetest moment of them all

This is the moment
Damn all the odds
This day or never
I sit forever with the gods
When I look back
I will always recall
Moment for moment
This was the moment

The greatest moment
Of them all!

The first time I ever got to see you in person, you walked out on the AGT stage, during your rehearsal, to sing this song, and that was "my moment" ...the moment my dream came true.... I will never forget it!🤗
