This Moment Is OK

Marti Pellow

Mother's drink is in her handbag
She's sleeps most staff the day
The dogs barks at the freeway
As the uptown drives away
From their offices and diary's
To their homes upon the hill
The rain beats on the window
Now the time is standing still

For all the tea in China 
I would not move away
But for a little sunshine 
I'd find the time of day
This moment isn't moving
These moments here to stay
There's nothing wrong with dreaming
This moment is OK

Dad sits down in his armchair
Watching spiders on the floor
Making bets with one another
Who'll be first to walk out the door
It's a Palace of distinction
Why ain't it home to me
As the sun comes up in the darkness
Where the drinking sets me free

For all the tea in China 
I would not move away
But for a little sunshine 
I'd find the time of day
This moment isn't moving
These moments here to stay, hey, yeah, yeah
There's nothing wrong with dreaming
This moment is OK

Then I thought I saw an angel
And it tapped upon my shoulder
And I wasn't ready for the answers yet, oh, no
But I knew that it was over
Its time to move along
Now the past is never gone
And there's nothing wrong with dreaming
This moment is OK, yeah, yeah (oh, oh, oh, oh)
Oh, and there's nothing wrong with dreaming
This moment is OK

There's nothing wrong with dreaming (yeah, yeah, yeah)
There's nothing wrong with dreaming
(These moments here to stay)
There's nothing wrong with dreaming (no, no, no)
There's nothing wrong with dreaming
(This moment is OK)
