At This Moment - Billy Vera and the Beaters

I was at the grocery store this AM when this song came on the Musak.  I vividly remember watching "Family Ties" and feeling so bad for Alex as he was breaking up with his girlfriend.  I adored this song in high school.  Its the ultimate break up song.  Thank you Kroger for playing it and reminding me I need it in my iTunes collection.  I think we've all felt these feelings before and with respect to my ex husband, the song reminds me of him.  There's a lot I could say about that but some things are better left unsaid.  

What did you think
I would do at this moment
When you're standing before me
With tears in your eyes?
Trying to tell me that you
Have found you another
And you just don't love me no more

What did you think
I would say at this moment
When I'm faced with the knowledge
That you just don't love me
Did you think I would curse you?
Or say things to hurt you?
Cause you just don't love me no more

Did you think I could hate you?
Or raise my hands to you?
Now come on, you know me too well
How could I hurt you
When darling, I love you
And you know... I'd never hurt you

What do you think, I would give at this moment?
If you'd stay I'd subtract twenty-years from my life
I'd fall down on my knees
Kiss the ground that you walk on
If I could just hold you again

I'd fall down on my knees
Kiss the ground that you walk on, baby
If I could just hold you...again
