Lyrics
Now And Then
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Now and then,
Sometimes when
You're thinking
About when you were
Always drinking
And how friendships came
In one evening
You loudly pretend connecting
Had some meaning
But now you don't,
'Cause you can recall
Why you were possessed
To say something like,
"Come along with me
And find a new direction
One that can't deceive us."
Like they first said on TV
And now you don't
'Cause you can
