Small Winter Moments

Just Got Lucky

It's Time To Move On

words and music by Barbara Bock & Gary Blu © ℗ 2021 Bock & Blu Music, Inc. (ASCAP)

If you're wondering what I’m thinking since you’ve been gone
Am I left remembering what we had 
Or is a memory just a picture of what we thought it could be
That’s no reality for me 

And if you’re wondering where it’s taken me - what did I do next
Let me make it clear for you to see
First, I get out of bed - then I think about all that we said 
That’s the reality for me

I go on living like no one’s ever hurt me 
Every day of my life
And sometimes it occurs to me that I’m living a lie, making a fool of me
Since I told you you're no good and I’m alright

I go on living like no one’s ever hurt me - That’s what I do
Every day of my life
And sometimes it occurs to me that I’m living a lie that everyone can see 
Since I told you I don't need you and I want you to say goodbye

So, you're wondering if I ever think of you at night
If my dreams are fantasies of you 
I don’t know what to say
'Cause we both know it’s you who chose to throw it all away
It seems we’re not meant to be 
Yet I still feel the heartache that makes me disagree
That’s the reality for me
