Stuck in a Moment, by Bono (but I know Martyn Joseph's version better)

I'm not afraid, of anything in this world.
There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard.
I'm just trying find a decent melody,
and a song that I can sing, my own company.
I thought you were a fool.
But Darling, look at you.
You've got to stand up straight,
carry your own weight,
these tears are going nowhere, baby.

You've got to get yourself together,
you got stuck in a moment and you can't get out of there.
And don't say that later will be better,
now you're stuck in a moment,
and you can't get out of there.

I will not forsake,
the colours that you bring,
the nights you filled with fireworks,
they left you with nothing.
I am still enchanted by the light you brought to me,
now listen through your ears and through your eyes I can say.
You are such a fool, to worry like you do,
I know its tough, and you can never get enough,
but what you don't really need now, and my oh my.

You've got to get yourself together,
you got stuck in a moment and you can't get out of there.
Oh, love, look at you now,
you've got yourself stuck in a moment
and you can't get out of there.

I was unconscious, half asleep,
the water is warm until you discover how deep.
I wasn't jumping,
for me it was a fall,
it was a long way down,
till nothing at all.

You've got to get yourself together,
you got stuck in a moment
and you can't get out of there.
And don't say that later will be better,
now you're stuck in a moment,
and you can't get out of there.

And if the night runs over,
and if the day won't last,
and if your way should falter,
along this stoney path,
this is just one moment,
and this time its gonna pass.

I've had this song in my head all day. It says it all really.
