Moments That Matter Lyrics - Aaron Lines

Moments That Matter 

(Aaron Lines/Mark Irwin/Josh Kear) 

I used to think I was a bigshot 

Thought I had it all but guess what 

Can't measure life by the things you got 

In the end it all ends up to nothing 

I swear I missed so many birthdays 

Valentines, hallowe'ens and anniversaries 

Left me lonesome in the worst ways 

But mister I learned something 

Chorus 

You can't buy back the moments that matter 

You can't buy back the moments that matter 

There's a big pot of gold at the top of the ladder 

But you can't buy back the moments that matter 

Gonna play some football in the backyard 

Teach my nephew how to play the guitar 

Call up some old friends and play some cards 

Waste a few Saturday evenings 

Gonna take my wife out dancing 

Every now and then without her asking 

Spin her around singing and laughing 

There's memories we should be making 

Chorus 

All this talk about the good life 

Makes me realize I got a great life 

Gotta keep my priorities in sight 

You just get one time around 

Chorus 

You can't buy back the moments that matter 

You can't buy back the moments that matter 

Years pass you buy and the days start to scatter 

But you can't buy back the moments that matter
