Cover art for Moments lyrics by One Direction

Well, this song has such powerful meaning, it's a really deep song, it almost made me cry when i heard it. My interpretation of what i've read in this song wrotte by Ed Sheeran and sang by One Direction, is that a girl died from an unknown cause, and her boyfriend loved her so much, that he commits suicide by letting himself fall out of her bedroom's window. This is a beautiful song sincerelly. In my opinion, you only get the real meaning of the song when you read Zayn's part almost at the end, when he says he sings ''Flashing lights in my mind, going back to the time, playing games in the street, kicking balls on my feet.'' it's about getting flashbacks of their moments together, like when people say you are about to die, your life 'flashes infront of your eyes', then when he sings ''There's a numb in my toes, standing close to the edge.'' That's when he's standing on the edge of the window, ready to jump off. ''There's a pile of my clothes at the end of your bed.'' I think that sentence is more like a filler, but that's when you get that he's in her bedroom, finally ''As i let myself fall, make a joke of it all.'' Is when he jumps making a joke of it all maybe because he's life is wasted, or maybe making a joke of the moment because he doesn't care about anything because he's going to see her again. Well, so that's my conclusion, he can't bear the pain in he's heart about losing her, so he kills himelf.
