The One Moment Songtext
von OK Go

You′re right
There's nothing more lovely
There′s nothing more profound
Than the certainty
Than the certainty that all of this will end
That all of this will end

So open your arms to me
Open your arms to me

This will be the one moment that matters
And this will be the one thing we remember
And this will be the reason to have been here (yeah)
And this will be the one moment that matters at all

So while the mile reclaims our footprints
And while our bones keep looking back
The overgrowth is swallowing the path
Before the grace of God, go we
Before the grace of God, go we
Before the grace of time and chance
And entropy's cruel hands


So open your arms to me
Open your arms to me

This will be the one moment that matters
And this will be the one thing we remember
And this will be the reason to have been here (yeah)
And this will be the one moment that matters at all

So won't you stay here with me?
And we′ll build ′til we blister our hands
So won't you stay here with me?
And we′ll build us some temples, build us some castles
Build us some monuments and burn them all right down

So open your arms to me
Open your arms to me

This will be the one moment that matters
And this will be the one thing we remember
And this will be the reason to have been here (yeah)
And this will be the one moment that matters at all


So won't you stay here with me
And we′ll build 'til we′ve blistered our hands
This will be the one thing we remember
So won't you stay here with me
And we'll build us some temples
Build us some castles

And this will be (build us some monuments)
This will be (build us some temples)
(The one moment that matters)
Build us some castles (And this will be)
Build us some monuments
The one moment that matters at all
