Okay, one take, one take...

This whole world is always waiting on tomorrow

Itching, fiending for whatever happens next

But what if I told you they're all lying

And I love you for who you are right now, the best

Everyone thinks they're going the wrong way

But they're looking at their maps all wrong

'cause everywhere's somewhere to someone

And in a rush, you cannot dance to smooth slow songs.

So, I'm gonna slow on down, someway, somehow

Today ain't different from the rest

And the you that I pine for, oh the you that I need

Oh, the you of right now is the best.

This hating heart healed by the hopeful

And I think I got a song that you'll like

It's awfully long and such a throatful

But it's perfect for a night like tonight

About you on the coasting water

Those white waves crash 'cross your skin

One of those days you miss already

And it ain't even had the damn chance to end

And I think grandfather's gone crazy

He keeps rambling on about way back when

Bragging 'bout grandma and war times

All the friends that he's lost once again.

So I'm gonna slow on down, someway, somehow

Today ain't different from the rest

Oh the you that I pine for, oh the you that I need

Oh the you of right now is the best.
