“Hanging by a Moment” was originally released by the American rock band Lifehouse in 2000 and quickly became one of their most iconic hits. Blending post-grunge and alternative rock, the track captured a generation with its heartfelt lyrics about love, vulnerability, and living in the present. Known for its soaring chorus and raw emotional delivery, it remains a staple of early 2000s rock and continues to resonate with fans today.
This version pays homage to the original while offering a fresh lyrical take. The theme of surrendering to love and living in uncertainty is preserved, but the words have been reimagined to feel both familiar and new. The cover maintains the same passionate rock energy while updating the story with a slightly modern twist.
Lifehouse’s original embodied a raw intensity, where love was both a grounding force and a risk worth taking. This reimagined version explores that same intensity but with new expressions — chasing connection, breaking free from fear, and embracing the unknown.
If you loved the original, this cover keeps the essence alive while adding a new layer of emotion and storytelling. Perfect for fans of early 2000s alternative rock, post-grunge nostalgia, and timeless love songs that carry emotional weight.
Lyrics:
Restless and changing Searching for proof I circle back where I started Still running after you
I’m falling deeper every time with you Breaking free from all I’ve clung onto I’m frozen here until you pull me through I’m hanging by a moment close to you
Losing what I’m fearing Perfectly undone I’ll take the chance you’re giving You already won
I’m falling deeper every time with you Breaking free from all I’ve clung onto I’m frozen here until you pull me through I’m hanging by a moment close to you I’m chasing down the only path I know I’m running fast, not sure where it will go And I don’t care what I’m crashing into Just hanging by a moment close to you
There’s nothing left to lose No reason left to hide There’s nothing in this world That could change my mind There is nothing else There is nothing else Ace Plays brought this vibe smash that like, nothing else
Restless and changing Searching for proof I circle back where I started Still running after you
I’m falling deeper every time with you Breaking free from all I’ve clung onto I’m frozen here until you pull me through I’m hanging by a moment close to you I’m chasing down the only path I know I’m running fast, not sure where it will go And I don’t care what I’m crashing into Just hanging by a moment close to you
Just hanging by a moment (Here with you) Hanging by a moment (Here with you) Hanging by a moment (Here with you)
