Moments
Westlife [Westlife] 1999 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

If I die tonight, I'd go with no regrets
If it's in your arms I know that I was blessed
And if your eyes are the last thing that I see
Then I know the beauty Heaven holds for me

But if I make it through, if I live to see the day
If I'm with you, I'll know just what to say
The truth be told, girl you take my breath away
Every minute, every hour, every day

'Cause every moment we share together
Is even better than the moment before
If everyday was as good as today was
Then I can't wait 'til tomorrow comes

A moment in time is all that's given you and me
A moment in time and it's something you should seize
So I won't make the mistake of letting go
Everyday you're here I'm gonna let you know

That every moment we share together
Is even better than the moment before
If everyday was as good as today was
Then I can't wait 'til tomorrow comes

Each morning that I get up
I love you more than ever
So girl I'll never go away
Never stray

So every moment we share together
Is even better than the moment before
If everyday was as good as today was
Then I can't wait 'til tomorrow comes

Every moment we share together
Is even better than the moment before
If everyday was as good as today was
I can't wait 'til tomorrow comes

I love, love, love the moments
Moments we share together
I love, love, love the moments
I pray they'd last forever

I love, love, love the moments
Moments we share together




I love, love, love the moments
I pray they'd last forever

@almirayasmine170

Never be bored to hear. Westlife is always special in my heart โค๏ธ

@thevail9146

You know, I am now in my 40's. I was very young when westlife came on the scene. I loved listening to them back then, and today their music still resonates with me. Still one of my favourite groups or bands of all time.there is a reason why they were the #1 boy band in history. I do like the music of other past boy bands like backstreet boys, o town, blue and so forth. But there is just something very special about westlife's music. It will always remain a pillar for people to go to when down and need comfort. So amazing

@pandeyakshat01
