This Moment Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, this moment
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, this moment
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 1]
Look in the mirror
And I start to tear up
I don't even know all that I see
I'm missing the way things used to be
But I wipe 'em away now
'Cause I'm not afraid now
I'm ready to find out who I am
Even if the world don't understand

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause after all this time, finally
The stars might be alignin', for me

[Chorus]
Something 'bout tonight got me feeling different
I can see the bright lights in the distance
Tell my old self "Hey, you'll be missed"
But I've been waiting my whole life for this
Something in my mind says to keep on going
The fire inside just keeps on glowing
Give my old sеlf a goodbye kiss
'Cause I've been waiting my wholе life for this
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, this moment
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, this moment
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Verse 2]
When all my emotions
Run deep as the ocean
Even if I laugh until I cry
I'm not gonna lock them up inside
My heart might get broken
But I'm still going
Oh, places that I've never been, no, no
I’m never looking back again

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause after all this time, finally
The stars might be alignin', for me

[Chorus]
Something 'bout tonight got me feeling different
I can see the bright lights in the distance
Tell my old self "Hey, you'll be missed"
But I've been waiting my whole life for this
Something in my mind says to keep on going
The fire inside just keeps on glowing
Give my old self a goodbye kiss
'Cause I've been waiting my whole life for this
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, this moment
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, this moment
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]
I was the girl who had the world inside her hands
But now I've opened up my eyes, ooh, oh
I'm doing me this time, I won't apologize
Never thought I could be so alive

[Chorus]
Something 'bout tonight got me feeling different
I can see the bright lights in the distance
Tell my old self "Hey, you'll be missed"
But I've been waiting my whole life for this
Something in my mind says to keep on going
The fire inside just keeps on glowing
Give my old self a goodbye kiss
'Cause I've been waiting my whole life for this

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, this moment
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, this moment
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
