Living It For The Moment

Written by Daniel Johnston

LYRICS
Living it for the moment
Are you gonna smile or fall on your face?
Living it for the moment
Are you gonna smile or fall on your face?
Love has a nasty habit of
Being on the run
When you look your girly in the eye
Be sure to love her best
Oh love is a freak out
Most everyone sins against the lord
Love is a weapon
Most people just get bored
You want, you wanna, wanna be
But you’re never going home
But nobody is untrue
You saw the truth
You just don’t know what to do
Gone was the happiness we felt
And everybody was to blame
I loved you all the best I could
And I’m really glad I came
Love was the witness
It was staring all along
It believed what it saw
But hand me that guitar
Guitar
Hey hey
Hey hey
Goodbye semi cruel world
You had it coming for so long
I’m leaving but I’ll be coming back
I’m just a singer in a semi famous song
Love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Living it for the moment
Are you gonna smile or fall on your face?
Living it for the moment
Are you gonna smile or fall on your face?
Living it for the moment
Are you gonna smile or fall on your face?
Living it for the moment
Are you gonna smile or fall on your face?
