This one this one this one this one Did I ever take you in my arms Look you in the eye tell you that I do Did I ever open up my heart And let you look inside If I never did it I was only waiting For a better moment   that didn’t come There never could be a better moment Than this one this one The swan is gliding above the ocean A god is riding upon his back       How calm the water and bright the rainbow Fade this one to black Did I ever touch you on the cheek      Say that you were mine thank you for the smile Did I ever knock upon your door       And try to get inside If I never did it I was only waiting For a better moment that didn’t come There never could be a better moment Than this one this one The swan is gliding above the ocean    A god is riding upon his back       How calm the water and bright the rainbow Fade this one to black What opportunities did we allow to flow by Feeling like the timing wasn’t quite right What kind of magic might have worked if we had stayed calm Couldn’t I have given you a better life Did you ever take me in your arms    Look me in the eye tell me that you do Did I ever open up my heart                      Let you look inside           If I never did it I was only waiting For a better moment that didn’t come There never could be a better moment Than this one this one The swan is gliding above the ocean    A god is riding upon his back       How calm the water and bright the rainbow Fade this one to black

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque les regrets et les occasions manquées dans une relation. L’artiste se demande s'il a jamais ouvert son cœur ou exprimé ses véritables sentiments envers l'autre, réalisant que le moment idéal pour le faire n'est finalement jamais apparu. Il semble perdre de vue les moments simples, mais précieux, qu'ils auraient pu partager ensemble. Le contexte peut être lié à la nostalgie des relations passées et à cette quête de la perfection dans le timing des émotions, souvent illusoire. Dans un monde où tout semble devoir être parfait pour agir, il dépeint la beauté des petits instants, tout en nous rappelant que parfois, il faut saisir l’instant présent avant qu'il ne s'évanouisse.
