Now and Then Lyrics

Coffee stained cups out on her window sill

If it's mine or hers we'll make it out

When we play upon the notion of who will wash the dishes

Wasn't sure then what I wanted, now I think that this is it

I should've listened to the call

Just as blossoms act as fleeting signs to mark

The everlasting spring, and a too impatient summer

Now and then, I worry all my time away

Now and then, I hurry through my glory days

Give this more thought

I'm helpless against the ticking time that plagues us all

And it's barely been a minute since I learned to crawl

Could you hold my hand, I'm terrified of another stage of life

And of every passing hour

Now and then, I worry all my time away

Now and then, I hurry through my glory days

Have you ever seen a tree so old it made you kind of sad?

That the branches and the leaves we've grown is all we've ever had

When the snow is melted and the grander forest comes to view

Will I still cherish anything? Will I still cherish you?

Slow down, slow down, I can't slow down, despite the peace that I've found

I can't slow down, slow down

Now and then, I worry all my time away

Now and then, I hurry through my glory days
