Moments That Matter<br>

(Aaron Lines / Mark Irwin /Josh Kear )<br>

<br>

I used to think I was a bigshot<br>

Thought I had it all but guess what<br>

Can't measure life by the things you got<br>

In the end it all ends up to nothing<br>

<br>

I swear I missed so many birthdays<br>

Valentines, hallowe'ens and anniversaries<br>

Left me lonesome in the worst ways<br>

But mister I learned something<br>

<br>

Chorus<br>

You can't buy back the moments that matter<br>

You can't buy back the moments that matter<br>

There's a big pot of gold at the top of the ladder<br>

But you can't buy back the moments that matter<br>

<br>

Gonna play some football in the backyard<br>

Teach my nephew how to play the guitar<br>

Call up some old friends and play some cards<br>

Waste a few Saturday evenings<br>

<br>

Gonna take my wife out dancing<br>

Every now and then without her asking<br>

Spin her around singing and laughing<br>

There's memories we should be making<br>

<br>

Chorus<br>

<br>

All this talk about the good life<br>

Makes me realize I got a great life<br>

Gotta keep my priorities in sight<br>

You just get one time around<br>

<br>

Chorus<br>

<br>

You can't buy back the moments that matter<br>

You can't buy back the moments that matter<br>

Years pass you buy and the days start to scatter<br>

But you can't buy back the moments that matter<br>

<br>
