Barbra Streisand - This Is One of Those Moments lyrics
[Barbra Streisand - This Is One of Those Moments lyrics]
There are moments you remember all your life
There are moments you wait for and
Dream of all your life
This is one of those moments
I will always remember this chair
That window the way the light streams in
The clothes I'm wearing
The words I'm hearing the face I'm seeing
The feeling I'm feeling
The smell, the sounds
Will be written on my mind
Will be written in my heart
As long as I live
I can travel the past and take what I
Need to see me through the years
What my father learned and
His father before him
Will be there for my eyes and ears
I can walk through the forests
Of the trees of knowledge
And listen to the lessons of the leaves
I can enter rooms where there
Are rooms within rooms
Wrapped in the shawl that learning weaves
I remember, Papa everything you've taught me
What you gave me, Papa
Look at what it's brought me
There are certain things that once you have
No man can take away no wave can wash away
No wind can blow away
And now they're about to be mine!
No tide can turn away no fire can burn away
No time can wear away
I can open doors, take from the shelves
All the books I've longed to hold
I can ask all the questions
The why's and the where's
As the mysteries of life unfold
Like a link in a chain from
The past to the future
That joins me with the children yet to be
I can now be a part of the ongoing stream
That has always been a part of me
There are certain things that once you have
No man can take away no wave can wash away
No wind can blow away no tide can turn away
No fire can burn away no time can wear away
And now they're about to be mine!
There are moments you remember all your life
There are moments you wait for and
Dream of all your life
This is one of those moments
There are moments you wait for and
Dream of all your life
This is one of those moments
I will always remember this chair
That window the way the light streams in
The clothes I'm wearing
The words I'm hearing the face I'm seeing
The feeling I'm feeling
The smell, the sounds
Will be written on my mind
Will be written in my heart
As long as I live
I can travel the past and take what I
Need to see me through the years
What my father learned and
His father before him
Will be there for my eyes and ears
I can walk through the forests
Of the trees of knowledge
And listen to the lessons of the leaves
I can enter rooms where there
Are rooms within rooms
Wrapped in the shawl that learning weaves
I remember, Papa everything you've taught me
What you gave me, Papa
Look at what it's brought me
There are certain things that once you have
No man can take away no wave can wash away
No wind can blow away
And now they're about to be mine!
No tide can turn away no fire can burn away
No time can wear away
I can open doors, take from the shelves
All the books I've longed to hold
I can ask all the questions
The why's and the where's
As the mysteries of life unfold
Like a link in a chain from
The past to the future
That joins me with the children yet to be
I can now be a part of the ongoing stream
That has always been a part of me
There are certain things that once you have
No man can take away no wave can wash away
No wind can blow away no tide can turn away
No fire can burn away no time can wear away
And now they're about to be mine!
There are moments you remember all your life
There are moments you wait for and
Dream of all your life
This is one of those moments
