Lyrics:

He took me to the hillside
He liked to take me there
He took me every Saturday
He put flowers in my hair

And we laughed like my mother said she once did
With my father on his birthday when they went swimming
And he took her hand into his
And he told her that he loved her
And his words held meaning, then

How do we make these moments last?
And, how do we get them to stay?
When everything passes and time goes away

He took me to the theater
He liked to take me there
He took me every Saturday
We didn't talk in there

And we laughed like my mother said she once did
With her sister on her birthday when she was seventeen
They took her car out for a spin
Along the ocean with the top down
And life held meaning then

How do we make these moments last?
How do we get them to stay?
When everything passes and time goes away

And how do we make these moments last?
And, how do we get them to stay?
When everything passes and time goes away
