Samantha Uhl - For a Moment Lyrics

Snow was melting when we met
Your flags were different shades of red
Introduced me to your bed
And soon enough it's just routine
I cry when you scream
It's like we're seventeen
And while the leaves were changing colours
I could feel my tummy flutter
You were laying with another
When I called to say goodnight
I don't wanna fight
We can make it right
I couldn't help it, you were all I knew
In this crazy world and whirlwind of emotions
All I had was you
And as years go by
I can feel my mind open up to the thought of life without you
Just for a moment
Winter flurries brush the ground
Thinking you had come around
My pride was nowhere to be found
When you offered an escape
The things I forgave
I thought could be erased
The tulips blooming was enough
For me to thank the gods above
That led me to a kind of love
That doesn't seem to go away
And makes me feel safe
He shows it every day
I couldn't help it, it's just all I've known
Ever since I was a little girl and daddy had a mess of his own
I let his words ring true
No one should be trusted, they're all traitors that turned him to stone
And there was a moment
When I
I believed it, every word that he said
He made sure, it was ingrained in my head
So I'd just sit and stare at the wall instead
Of letting someone in
It was no one's fault
His wounds were just held in salt
For a little too long
He couldn't help it, it's just all he's known
His reality has taken over any signs of progress he's shown
And while the years go by
That little bit of hope I had that someday you would be on the phone
And want to atone
Has faded away
And there was a moment
That I forgave
