Here and Now

Where did all the time go? Only seems like yesterday
We'd sit and talk for hours, we'd watch our children play
Now we're just left with haunted memories
Flashes of faces, moments that used to be

What are you going to say when Father Time has his way?
At the end of the day will you shed a tear?
Oh where did the time go?
Each passing day melts away and it's too late once they disappear

Where have the days gone? They must have came and went
I should've paid attention, I should have saved instead of spent
Now I'm just left with what is and what should be
A pain in my chest, a hole where my heart should be

What are you going to say when Father Time has his way?
At the end of the day will you shed a tear?
Oh where did the time go?
Each passing day melts away and it's too late once they disappear

You have to say you're gonna fight it
You have to live with no regrets
You have to savor every moment
Appreciate the time you get
You have to soak up all the memories
You have to make the seconds last
You've got to live in the here and now
Our time ticks by so fast

Here and now
Here and now
Here and now
Here and now

What are you going to say when Father Time has his way?
At the end of the day will you shed a tear?
Oh where did the time go?
Each passing day melts away and it's too late once they disappear

I forgot to say I love you
I forgot to say I care
I thought we had tomorrow
But life can be unfair
Our time is oh so fleeting
Our time is just so brief
How I long for yesterday
Instead of all this grief
Here and now
