Lyrics Matthew Sweet – Now Was The Future

Since I live in a garden
I’m harder to thrill
But maybe ’cause I was born here
I’m also harder to kill

Shoot up the stars
Leave them behind
Is there somethin’ else
You wish we could find?

You shouldn’t wonder
Who you should be
That’s how you ended up here
Stuck up climbin’ around in this tree

You don’t build a house
To tear down the walls
Some of us hang on
And some of us fall
Some will fall

You don’t have to wait to get to then
Now was the future
Open your closed mind and leave behind
All of your worst fears
Baby, the past isn’t of use here
We have thrown it all away

We shoot up the stars
We leave them behind
Some of us hang on
Some of us fly
Some will fly

You don’t have to wait to get to then
Now was the future
