Moments
Psy'Aviah Suzi Q. Smith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The New Year's Eve we did the town
The day we tore the goal post down
We'll have these moments to remember
The quiet walks, the noisy fun
The ballroom prize we almost won
Though summer turns to winter
And the present disappears
The laughter we were glad to share
Will echo through the years
When other nights and other days
May find us gone our separate ways
We will have these moments to remember
The drive in movie where we'd go
And somehow never watched the show
We will have these moments to remember
The lyrics to Suzi Q. Smith's song "Moments" speak to the idea that time passes quickly and that the memories of the experiences we have shared with others are what stay with us over the years. The verses list a series of events, both small and large, that the singer shares with someone else, from quiet walks to rowdy nights out on the town. The chorus reiterates the theme, noting that these moments will be what endures even as time moves forward and people drift apart.
The lyrics effectively capture the bittersweet nature of nostalgia, highlighting the joy and connection that are present in the moments themselves while acknowledging that they are transitory and will eventually give way to other experiences. The song as a whole is a poignant reflection on the power of shared memories to shape our lives and relationships.
