Lyrics

Here And Now

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.

Here we go!

The buzz of electric lamplight

From down on the sidewalk

You struggle, grasp your night-shirt and turn

But the universe doesn't say what you want it to say

The universe says,

just what it says,

when it says what it says

But on the planet Earth,

spinning around its axis

Revolving around the Sun,

revolving around the center

Of the Milky Way galaxy in a supercluster of galaxies

Will it ever be you and me

Here and now

Here and now

Here and now

Here and now

Your consoling hands in a gesture

Well placed and throbbing

Throbbing with the buzz of electric lamplight

From down on the sidewalk

But the universe doesn't say what you want it to say

The universe says,

Just what it says,

When it says what it says

But on the planet Earth,

spinning around its axis

Revolving around the Sun,

revolving around the center

Of the Milky Way galaxy in a supercluster of galaxies

Will it ever be you and me

Here and now

Here and now

Here and now

Here and now

The buzz of electric lamplight

From down on the sidewalk

You struggle, grasp your night-shirt and turn

But the universe doesn't say what you want it to say

The universe says,

Just what it says,

When it says what it says

Quanta, mesons, hadrons, photons, neutrons, electrons and protons Combining to form

Atoms and molecules and compounds and cells,

Tissues and organs in a system of a being

On the planet Earth,

Spinning around its axis,

Revolving around the Sun, revolving around

The center of the Milky Way galaxy

In a supercluster of galaxies

Will it ever be you and me

Here and now?

Here and now

Here and now

Here and now

Here and now
