That Was Then (This Is Now)

Do you know where to go?

When you're walking around at midnight?

You can look high and low

But you won't

Find yourself without a flashlight

There are plenty of ways

To explain your situation

When you're searching for love

You have no time to be patient

I looked all over town, all around

I didn't see you anymore

You were safe and bound, underground

Where I couldn't see you at all

I found myself, right at home on the shelf

While you were busy looking for yourself

That was then and this is now

And now the time has come

There was a time whеn a boy would cry alone

In his room, in the corner

And it's a crimе that his toys would turn to stone

Like their original owner

But that was then and this is now

We all just figure it out somehow

Yes, we do

Ain't it true?

Find yourself over the hill

Break your crown, Jack and Jill

In the open or underground

Are you making plans or just making sounds?

Looking up and over the Moon

You can find yourself

But don't find it too soon

Don't find it too soon

Take your time

But don't find it too soon

I looked all over town, all around

I couldn't find you anywhere

You were safe underground

Not a sound

Disappearing into thin air
