Lyrics

NOW AND THEN
I used to think that life was like a little dance
And if you missed your step...well...you had your chance
But now I know that disappointments come and go
And if you keep looking back you never get past it

Cuz it's now and then it's now again
And life is an endless possibility
Cuz it’s now, and then it's now again
We’re standing on the corner
Of Was Road and Will-Be Highway


I used to think that love was like a photograph
A Kodak moment, good for a laugh
But now I know real love is never just for show.
You may lose your lover,
But love is never over.

Cuz it's now and then it's now again
And love is a golden opportunity
It is now, and then it's now again
We are standing on the corner
Of Was Road and Will-Be Highway

One day they'll lay you in your grave
And say the words that people say
And then they'll all go to some cafe or other.
You won't be sippin' coffee with 'em
Better celebrate the moments now while you can

I used to think that time was like a looking glass
And if you could see more of it, it'd look just like the past
But now I know that time is just a river flowin'
As one season's done, the next one's begun


Cuz it's now and then
It's now again
Quit waitin' for someday, that never-gonna-come day
It is now, and then it's now again
We are standing on the corner
Of Was Road and WillBe Highway

Cuz it's now and then
It's now again
Life could be very extraordinary
It is now, and then it's now again
We are standing on the corner
Of Was Road and WillBe Highway
