A Moment Like This

I fell in love with you, when I was seventeen
Watched you dancing all night long with sweet Josephine
Heard your mamma got a letter in the post
Said you and Josephine ran away
I put my dreams and my heart into quarantine

I heard the rumours... said you were heading back to town
You were coming home alone, cos she'd been foolin' round
Such a shame... the way it all worked out
Your mamma said... she always had her doubts
Said you were both way too young anyways to settle down

No good dreaming of maybe
No good wondering what if
Cos every moment behind us
Has lead to a moment like this

I believe that things work out
Just the way they're meant to be
Must be the reason
Why things happen naturally

I started singing Friday nights at Mary Ellen's bar
You were working in the band, playing lead guitar
Funny how your mamma said... she always knew
Saw it in her tea leaves that I'd end up with you
Said she believed all along it was written in our stars

No good dreaming of maybe
No good wondering what if
Cos every moment behind us
Has lead to a moment like this
