I haven't seen my friends in a long, long time
In a long, long time
Feels like the world has stopped, and I'm losing my mind
And I'm losing my mind
And the thing about the ballgowns and the parties
Is they're great, but I just miss us getting ready
In my room, making fools of the night

It's the quiet before the storm
The deep breath before you jump
The sigh of relief after the first time I told you
that I loved you in the New York lights
And the laughter that ends every fight
It's the smile behind my brother's eyes
When he tells me about another crazy thing he finds
It's the ray of Sun that hits my face
When I'm in a rush to get some place
It's the moments in between
The moments I might not see

I know it's been so long since I've held you close
Since I've held you close
And I hope, I hope you really know
I'm never ever letting go
The next time we're alone
And the thing about the bright light and new cities
Is they're great, but not like rain before a movie
Pouring down on us two running through

It's the quiet before the storm
The deep breath before you jump
The sigh of relief after the first time you told me
that you loved me in the New York lights
And the laughter that ends every fight
It's the smile behind my brother's eyes
When he tells me about another crazy thing he finds
It's the ray of Sun that hits my face
When I'm in a rush to get some place
It's the moments in between
The moments that I might not see

And I've been thinking about the way you dance, how it makes me laugh
And you know just what to do when I'm blue
One look at you
And daddy always said it was the little things
Maybe it's the way he looks when mama sings
And now I know
Now I know

Yeah, I've been thinking about the moments in between
Those moments mean the most to me
