Now And Then Lyrics by Liana Flores
Now and then
The world outside can be so loud
The soft sadness of seasons turned
Spills shadows on the ground
Loneliness
Can be a loyal companion
A cool familiar phantom
To follow you around
Now I know
For love I would forget myself
For light upon the water
Water in the light
If this feeling goes
Won’t somebody tell me when
For I can’t help but run from love
Now and then
O my friend
I was barely human when you kept me warm and took me in ’til summer came again
Darkness falls. I act as if I hardly care
Meanwhile your memory’s everywhere
So how can I pretend
Happiness comes only when your back is turned
The more you look it in the eyes
The sooner it’ll burn
Out of place, whenever love has flown away
You’re gone and I’m an owl by day, still dreaming of the moon
And the storm goes on far too strong, far too strong, I forget myself now and then
