The best of times

I became aware, realized the situation no one else on stage, but thousands in front of it

Time stops and then flies away

The playing stops, I can bow and thank

I step down from the stand until my feet are on the ground

I remember the observation tower and how far I saw

Now the telescope turns in

I lost the sense of time, forgot to grow, wasted hours and not enjoying them now, tomorrow I don't want to notice that I wasn't present

The moment is now, the moment is here

And heart gets a second safe

There won't be a moment righter than this that I share with you

The best of times*

It took years to realize the perishableness of time, it's my most important property

And I want to share it with you

Like many moments already gone

Together we've encountered peaks and challenges, hard places, they are all treasures

You can't go back to past, now, smiling wide, I come back from the stage

Soon everything will be different, I'd like to keep this moment safe

I'm not hoing to notice that I wasn't present, the moment is now, the moment is here

And heart gets a second safe

There won't be a moment righter than this that I share with you

The best of times*

Thanks! ❤
