The Moment When

There was a warm wind up from the coast
You turned your face away, that hurt the most
Two cups of coffee going cold, you staring out the window
Your eyes were cold as stone when you looked at me again
That was the moment when

There was a whole lot of talking we had
I thought I'd put this train back on the track
But two nights by the coast couldn't fix the way you felt
I think that at the most you could have saved me from myself
That was the moment when

It was the moment when I knew, we'd done all we could do
And though it hurt us so, it was time to let it all go
I'd like to know what we had was good when we think about it all again
But looking back I know that was the moment when

She said you can't see what's in front of you
You've got your eyes shut tight, and they're blinding you
You'd better listen to me now, I won't repeat myself
We're living in the past, we're lying to ourselves
That was the moment when

It was the moment we realised what came as no surprise
And now we'd reached the end, we knew we couldn't pretend
I'd like to know what we had was good when we think about it all again
But looking back I know that was the moment when
Looking back I know that was the moment when
