Karaoké Moments Emerson Drive

I was coming to the end of a long, long walk

When a man crawled out of a cardboard box

Under the E. Street Bridge followed me on to it

I went out halfway across with that homeless shadow tagging along

So I dug for some change wouldn't need it anyway

He took it looking just a bit ashamed

He said, you know I haven't always been this way

I've had my moments days in the sun

Moments

I was second to none

Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do

Like that plane ride coming home from the war

That summer my son was born

And memories like a coat so warm a cold wind can't get through

Looking at me now you might not know it but I've had my moments

I stood there trying to find my nerve

Wondering if a single soul on Earth

Would care at all miss me when I'm gone

That old man just kept hanging around

Looking at me looking down

I think he recognized that look in my eyes

Standing with him there

I felt ashamed

I said, you know I haven't always been this way

I've had my moments days in the sun

Moments

I was second to none

Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do

Like that day I walked away from the wine

For a woman who became my wife

And a love that when it was right

Could always see me through, and

Looking at me now you might not know it but I've had my moments

I know somewhere around a trashcan fire tonight

That old man tells his story one more time, he says

I've had my moments days in the sun

Moments

I was second to none

Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldn't do

Like that cool night on the E. Street Bridge

When a young man almost ended it

I was right there wasn't scared a bit

And I helped to pull him through

Looking at me now you might not know it

Oh, looking at me now you might not know it

But I've had my moments

I've had my moments
