"Space between the moments" - artisan writers
Updated: Jun 26, 2020
The back story on this song comes from my own personal story. I had recently gone through the pains of losing my marriage and was working through some homework that my counselor has given me. The homework assignment was forcing me to look back into the "Story" of the last 4-5 years and take inventory of what I had missed. Missed moments, memories or opportunities that I could have used to help close the distance in my marriage and fill it with love. During a little breakdown on lunch one day the idea of "Space between the moments" was birthed and later that night I shared it with my Artisan Writers group. Thank you Chris, Cheana and Nicole for helping me walk through my past to help make this song so special. Thank you Chris for getting vulnerable enough with yourself (Being the only Dad in the group) to be able to write the second verse.
I hope you enjoy the song but most of all, I hope it sparks you to take your own personal inventory. That you might learn from my own mistakes and not let some of moments slip by. Take the Space. Love those close to you. Be PRESENT. - Law
Space Between The Moments
Lawrence, Cheanna, Nicole, Chris
VERSE
Until it’s gone you don’t know the worth
You don’t feel the pain till you see the hurt
I should have danced with you on the kitchen floor
I lost what you were looking for
I should have heard what you never said
The hidden thoughts inside your head
I could have spoken less and listened more
I lost the moments that I ignored
I lost the moments that I ignored
Chorus: (SECOND TIME SKIP DAT TAG)
I don’t want to miss the space between the moments
Cause I missed my time with you
Wish that I could take away the space between us
But there’s nothing I can do
TAG:
Days go by
Cant rewind
But I’m gonna do it right this time
I don’t want to miss the space between
The space between the moments
VERSE
Until they’re gone you don’t realize
They grow up fast and time flies by
I should have tried to slow down with you
Cause now I can’t catch up to you (JUMP OCTAVE)
BRIDGE
The tables have turned
I finally learned
I lost all I never wanted
Is it too late
To fix my mistakes
Take back the time and erase the space
FULL:
I don’t want to miss the space between the moments
Cause I missed my time with you
Wish that I could take away the space between us
But there’s nothing I can do
TAG:
Days go by
Cant rewind
But I’m gonna do it right this time
I don’t want to miss the space between
The space between the moments
OUTRO VERSE:
I could have spoken less and listened more
I lost the moments that I ignored
