Letting the Moment Go

The tears of goodbye

If I hadn't let the moment go

I might have held you in my arms

One last time

The phone call I didn't make

The card I never sent

The words I never spoke

I could go on and on

My grief knows no bounds

Cause I let the moment go

/

Minutes turn to hours

Hours turn to days

Page by page

I write a new story

Without you by my side

/

If I hadn't let the moment go

Held onto the unending sorrow

Trapped in distant memories

Laughing in the streets

Watching fireworks

Calling you silly names

Oh, the joys, the joys of childhood

As I wipe the cobwebs away

Cause I let the moment go

/

In loving memory of my cousin Joey, whom I affectionately called JEB during our childhood.
