Lyrics
I was coming to the end of a long long walk
When a man crawled out of a cardboard box
Under the E. Street Bridge
Followed me on to it
I went out halfway across
With that homeless shadow tagging along
So I dug for some change
Wouldnt need it anyway
He took it lookin just a bit ashamed
He said, You know, I havent always been this way
Ive had my moments, days in the sun
Moments I was second to none
Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldnt do
Like that plane ride coming home from the war
That summer my son was born
And memories like a coat so warm
A cold wind cant get through
Lookin at me now you might not know it
But Ive had my moments
I stood there tryin to find my nerve
Wondering if a single soul on Earth
Would care at all
Miss me when Im gone
That old man just kept hanging around
Lookin at me, lookin down
I think he recognized
That look in my eyes
Standing with him there I felt ashamed
I said, You know, I havent always felt this way
Ive had my moments, days in the sun
Moments I was second to none
Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldnt do
Like the day I walked away from the wine
For a woman who became my wife
And a love that, when it was right,
Could always see me through
Lookin at me now you might not know it
But Ive had my moments
I know somewhere round a trashcan fire tonight
That old man tells his story one more time
He says
Ive had my moments, days in the sun
Moments I was second to none
Moments when I knew I did what I thought I couldnt do
Like that cool night on the E. Street Bridge
When a young man almost ended it
I was right there, wasnt scared a bit
And I helped to pull him through
Lookin at me now you might not know it
Oh, lookin at me now you might not know it
But Ive had my moments
Ive had my moments
