Song information
I wrote this song last year while I was working at a rehab and assessment centre in New Zealand. 
It was one of the most exhausting jobs I’ve ever had. Our team was small, and I often had to go above and beyond just to keep things moving — and because I care so much about the work, I always gave it everything I had. But it definitely took a toll.

This song came from those moments at the end of a brutal day - when all you want is a little peace and quiet to catch your breath.

These days, I’m lucky to be working in a much bigger hospital here in Hamburg. I still work hard, but I don’t feel that same level of burnout anymore.
That said… give me a glass of red wine after work, and you’ll be speaking my language. :)

Lyrics
Verse 1
Kicked off the shoes, closed the door
Dropped the day on the hallway floor
Phone on silent, lights turned low
Just me, the quiet, and the afterglow

Chorus
Let this moment last just a little while
I’ve been runnin’ on empty, wearin’ a smile
The work I do, it means the world to me
But tonight I just wanna breathe
So pour me peace in a red wine glass
And let this moment, let this moment last

Verse 2
The kettle hums, and the floorboards creak
It’s the only voice I need this week
Ain’t no shame in slowin’ down
When your soul’s been tossed and turned around

Chorus
Let this moment last just a little while
I’ve been runnin’ on empty, wearin’ a smile
The work I do, it means the world to me
But tonight I just wanna breathe
So pour me peace in a red wine  glass
And let this moment, let this moment last

Instrumental break

Verse 3
I know tomorrow’s comin’ fast
Emails, meetings, questions asked
But right now I’m here, and I’m okay
In this quiet place I’ve carved from the day

Chorus
Let this moment last just a little while
I’ve been holdin’ on tight with a weary smile
What I give, I give with all my heart
But I need this time to fall apart
So pour me peace in a red wine glass
And let this moment...
Let this moment last
