It strikes just when there's no time
When you're in a hurry and have to take care of everything
In five o'clock traffic, at the shop counter
At a holiday party, on a coffee break
Like lightning from the sky, a pang in the chest
That moment is small and I'm smaller still
Yeah I still am, though not as often these days
I wonder about you and where I lost you to
That moment is small but insurmountable
Insurmountable
I go to sleep, wake up, go to work and eat
And in between I stare at the walls of the night
Even though you're always hidden within me
You stay as a scar deep in the soul
In the shadow of the reading lamp the memories strike a pang in the chest
That moment is small and I'm smaller still
Yeah I still am, though not as often these days
I wonder about you and where I lost you to
That moment is small but insurmountable
Insurmountable
You left when I was so certain
That we had everything we needed
But I don't break down under it anymore
It's just an ache
That moment is small and I'm smaller still
Yeah I still am, though not as often these days
I wonder about you and where I lost you to
That moment is small but insurmountable
Insurmountable
