Moments
Freddy Verano Featuring Sam Smith Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Moments I make momentarily mine
Are moments I take a step back in time
Each step that I take is leading me to
A time when I felt closer to you

Moments I gain, moments I lose
I'm just giving time, trying to find
What we had once has been left behind
Here we both stand as it slips through our hands

We know we can
We can survive
Survive the fall
That comes before the rise

Moments we care a little too much
Moments we care are never enough
Claiming to pride, hitching on high
What we truly feel, we push to the side

Moments we gain are moments we lose
We're just giving time, trying to find
What we had once has been left behind
Here we stand as it slips through our hands

We know we can
We can survive
Survive the fall
That comes before the rise
That comes before the rise

Are we just getting time trying to find?
What we had once has left behind
And here we stand as it slips through our hands

We know we can
We can survive
Survive the fall
That comes before the rise
We know we can
We can survive
Survive the fall
That comes before the rise





Moments we gain are moments, are moments
Moments we gain are moments we lose

Moments I make
Momentarily mine
Are moments I take a step back in time
Each step I that take is leading me to
A time when I felt upset at you
Moments I gain, moments I lose
I'm just killing time tryin to find
What we had once is but left behind
Yet we both stand as it slips trough our hands

We know we can
We can survive
Survive the fall
That comes be before pride

Moments we care a little too much
Moments we care are never enough
Clinging to pride, our heads held high
What we truly feel we push to the side
Moments we gain are moments we lose
We're just killing time trying to find
What we had once has been left behind
Yet we stand as it slips through our hands

We know we can
We can survive
Survive the fall
That comes be before pride
That comes be bofore pride
Are we just killing time trying to find
What we had once has been left behind
And here we stand as it slips through our hands

We know we can
We can survive
Survive the fall
That comes be before pride (2-X)

Moments we gain are moment are moment
Moments we gain are moments we lose

This is really good but i have to admit, he's improved massively over time. Such a great voice!

@ashrimpest6921

A boy of 16! What an achievement. So fascinating to hear this and see how Sam's developed, but he was talented then. Song a little bland, but he was just starting out. The emotion and passion deriving from later unhappy life experiences are missing naturally. Stay around for decades, please Sam, keep producing great music.

@HansLowell

This song is pure love. Enjoy every moment of your life ^^

Fall in love with Sam's music❤😍

@SuperBassGleekFreak

To everyone wondering why he sounds so different, i'm pretty sure he recorded this when he was about 16 years old :) Obviously his voice has developed so much since then, and this was still when he was trying to find his sound :)

@sejdanurcapa7516

seriously 16 years? 😂 he wasnt even famous when he was 16 lol

@D8aChannel

Instant good-mood tune :)

@humerahkhan9055

Basically, this is Sam but he did this with another record company, when he was younger. And also, he has to try different genres of music, so why is everyone complaining about the genre and the type of song? I think this is amazing for a singer who sings soul and pop music.
