I'm half remembered, half way across the world.

Twice removed from a second home.

The shadow of a ghost in an old haunt
with a lease on life, 'cause I can't afford to own.

When being young starts getting old.

A new place saves face or so I'm told.

Be the new kid, on an old block; a chalk outline on a playground blacktop.

I'm just a moment, so don't let me pass you by.

We could be a story in the morning, but we'll be a legend tonight.

I'm just a moment, so don't let me pass you by; and they can speak our names in a dead language.

Cause you and I, we're alive.

But just for a moment

I'm twice the man that I thought I was yesterday.

Half the time, I'm a world away.

A flicker of a soul casting silhouettes on the face of a town that could not get me to stay.

And when the spark's gone, former lovers just looking for a bus to throw me under.

I'll be the new kid on an old block.

A chalk outline on a playground blacktop.

I'm just a moment, so don't let me pass you by.

We could be a story in the morning, but we'll be a legend tonight.

I'm just a moment, so don't let me pass you by.

And they can speak our names in a dead language; cause you and I, we're alive.
But just for a moment.

Just for a moment.
