Sheila and the Insects Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A moment at the height of bliss
A moment like this
A moment I would never miss
Close your eyes
And take this time to realize
You dwell in me as I dwell in you
A moment like this
Longing for that sinner′s kiss
A moment like this
Can't get enough of this bliss
And you come like thunder
And you come like rain
You come in circles and you come in dreams
And you come in strangest times it seems
A moment like this
A moment at the height of bliss
A moment like this
A moment I would never miss
A moment like this
Longing for that sinner′s kiss
A moment like this
Can't get enough of this bliss
