The Moment To Know Lyrics - Singles - Rick Tallis

[Verse-1] 

Manhattan autumn, a morning like any other 

She woke up thinking shes the luckiest mother 

But she feels so helpless when hes not around 

She feels the weakness hes always kept her from 

[Verse-2] 

Said mama Im off now, I've made you pancakes 

I will give you a call on every break 

Bent down to kiss her and take a look through her eyes 

To read the words she would never let him realize 

[Bridge] 

Dont go, I need you 

In every breath I breathe you 

Its yet to come 

[Chorus] 

The moment to know... 

[Verse-3] 

Staring at the tree, outside the window 

She was counting the leaves, waiting for the next wind to blow 

But out of the blue, there came a strong wind 

Shook 'em off of the tree, all the yellows and greens 

[Verse-4] 

Glasses were shaking, panic in the streets 

Chilled to the bone, she was caught in a bad dream 

Emergency sirens filling any gaps of silence 

She could hear her words out there but no longer soundless 

[Bridge] 

Dont go, I need you 

In every breath I breathe you 

And here it comes 

[Chorus] 

The moment to know 

[verse-5] 

The moment to know he was flying away 

And she will never find the words to pray 

The moment to know he will never come home 

Manhattan autumn remains forever grey
