Moments
Emma Muscat Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The good and the bad
But like a few stories
Things started to bore and we had to end
It started off sweetly and remained for a while
Then you started drifting
Slowly forgetting as time went by
Like a God from above
But I guess I was blinded
By something called love
I know what you did
I should have moved on
Knew that I'd take you back
Every time you fucked up
I'm sorry for hurting you
Never really wanted to
But after all the times that I've cried
And all the times that you've lied
Oh baby
I'm sorry for hurting you
Guess I was too good to you
Oh baby
Now you know that it's real
To feel the way you make me feel
We had our moments
Don't know how to feel
Love is just an illusion
That keeps on fooling us from the real
You played all your cards
Then run out of time
Turn my heart to stone
Baby you know you've played with my mind
I thought you were perfect
Like a God from above
But I guess I was blinded
By something called love
You know what you did
I should have moved on
Knew that I'd take you back
Every time you fucked up
I'm sorry for hurting you
Never really wanted to
But after all the times that I've cried
And all the times that you've lied
Oh baby
I'm sorry for hurting you
Guess I was too good to you
Oh baby
Now you know that it's real
To feel the way you make me feel
I'm sorry
Sorry for hurting you
You know, I've never really wanted to
In these lyrics, the singer, Emma Muscat, reflects on a relationship that has gone through both good and bad moments. She compares their story to other stories that eventually become boring and have to end. The relationship started off sweetly and lasted for a while, but then the person she's singing about started drifting and slowly forgetting about their love as time passed.
At first, the singer thought that the person she was with was perfect, almost like a god from above. However, she realizes that she was blinded by love and didn't see their flaws. She acknowledges that she knows what this person did, and she should have moved on. Despite that, she admits that she kept taking them back every time they messed up.
The singer expresses her regret for hurting this person, stating that she never really wanted to cause them pain. But she also highlights the many times she cried and the lies this person told her. She apologizes sincerely for her actions but also acknowledges that she was too good to them in the past.
As the song continues, the singer reflects on love as an illusion that often tricks us, making us believe it's real when it isn't. She realizes that this person played all their cards but eventually ran out of time. Their actions caused her heart to become hardened, and they played with her mind.
Again, the singer expresses her initial belief that the person she was with was perfect. However, she now understands that she was blinded by love. She reiterates that she knows what this person did, and she should have moved on. Despite that, she admits that she kept taking them back every time they messed up.
The song ends with the singer apologizing once more for hurting this person, emphasizing that she never really wanted to cause them pain. She concludes by stating that they know she truly means it and that she's never wanted to hurt them. These lyrics reveal a mixture of regret, realization, and a willingness to take responsibility for one's own actions in a conflicted relationship.
Line by Line Meaning
We had our moments
We had unforgettable experiences together
The good and the bad
We shared both happy and difficult times
But like a few stories
Just like some narratives
Things started to bore and we had to end
Our relationship became dull, and we had to break up
It started off sweetly and remained for a while
In the beginning, it was lovely and endured for some time
Then you started drifting
Then you began to distance yourself emotionally
Slowly forgetting as time went by
Gradually forgetting about me as time passed
I thought you were perfect
I believed you were flawless
Like a God from above
Like a divine being
But I guess I was blinded
But it seems I was unable to see the truth
By something called love
Because of a powerful feeling called love
I know what you did
I am aware of your actions
I should have moved on
I should have let go and moved forward
Knew that I'd take you back
Despite knowing I would forgive you
Every time you fucked up
Whenever you made a mistake
I'm sorry for hurting you
I apologize for causing you pain
Never really wanted to
I never had the intention to hurt you
But after all the times that I've cried
However, considering all the moments of my tears
And all the times that you've lied
And all the instances when you deceived me
Oh baby
Oh, my dear
I'm sorry for hurting you
I apologize for causing you pain
Guess I was too good to you
Maybe I treated you too well
Now you know that it's real
Now you understand the authenticity
To feel the way you make me feel
Of experiencing the emotions you evoke in me
We had our moments
We had unforgettable experiences together
Don't know how to feel
I'm unsure about my emotions
Love is just an illusion
Love is merely a deceptive perception
That keeps on fooling us from the real
That continuously deceives us from reality
You played all your cards
You used up all your strategies
Then run out of time
Then ran out of opportunity
Turn my heart to stone
Caused my heart to become cold and unfeeling
Baby you know you've played with my mind
Darling, you know you have manipulated my thoughts
I'm sorry
I apologize
Sorry for hurting you
Apologies for causing you pain
You know, I've never really wanted to
You know, I genuinely never intended to
