Moments - Boz Scaggs

Was it for a moments pleasure

That brought me to your door

Was it for your darkest treasure

Could I have loved you more

Did I take the time to tell you

I’d seen you once before

You were standing in my garden

And I was on the floor

You came around that evening

You came around that fall

My heart went out that evening

Never came back at all, oh

And so I came to know you

As keeper of my heart

It saw me search and saw you

It showed me from the start

Time and again I’ve held you near me

I wonder if you’ve ever known

How I hold you near me

Is not exactly shown

I’m coming around to know you

I’ve come to find my place

And someone there to go to

It’s come to be my fate

Like a fire holds its heat in

Like the winter holds its cold

Like a question holds its answer

That’s the way you hold

I came around that evening

I came around that fall

My heart went out that evening

Never came back at all

Coming around to know you

I’ve come to find my place
