Francoise Hardy - Moments lyrics

How could so many people be living just for this? Moments of redemption, momentary bliss... And what with so many people Living for the day? Treetops give the answers Swallows show the way It's so strange The things we wish for The things we thought We couldn't do without... It's so sad The things we dreamed of The things we thought We couldn't live without... How could so many memories Comfort you at dawn Bring you back to days of happiness? And what do we do with moments Once they've been and gone Do they wait in churchyards Til we pa**? It's so strange The things we wish for The things we thought We couldn't do without It's so sad The love we dreamed of The love we thought We couldn't live without...
