Edeltraud Trncik - What Really Matters Lyrics

Another day, I'm running fast
Chasing shadows that don't last
Important now, or so it seems
But will it matter in my dreams?
Time slips away, like sand through my hands
Stress builds up, as life's clock demands
But in this race, what do I gain?
When all I feel is this strain
We're caught up in the moment's hue
(Moment's hue)
Forgetting what really matters, what's true
(What matters, what's true)
Wasting energy on fleeting things
While life's real melody quietly sings
Deadlines loom, notifications chime
I'm a slave to the present time
But years from now, will I recall
These urgent tasks, so pressing, so small
Breathing deep, I start to see
The bigger picture of who I could be
If I let go of the daily grind
And focus on peace of mind
We're caught up in the moment's hue
(Moment's hue)
Forgetting what really matters, what's true
(What matters, what's true)
Wasting energy on fleeting things
While life's real melody quietly sings
What if we paused, took time to reflect
On the path we're on, the life we select
Would we choose differently, rearrange
Our priorities, make a change?
We're caught up in the moment's hue
(Moment's hue)
Forgetting what really matters, what's true
(What matters, what's true)
Wasting energy on fleeting things
While life's real melody quietly sings
So let's listen close, to that gentle refrain
And find what truly eases the pain
(Eases the pain)
In life's grand story, not just today
What will matter, when we're old and grey?
