Lyrics Nahko And Medicine For The People – Be Here Now

Text:

You’ve got two feet
That seem to keep wandering away from me
Your curiosity is kind of irritating
And by that, I mean you’re not alone

I was waiting on you
And you were waiting on me
And so in silence we’d sit
Wondering, wondering
From your mind down your shoulders
To your right hand
On the paper in the history
You’re making plans
You’ve lost your wonder for me
But not for the land

Be here now
Be here now
While you are still around
Be here now

He will enchant you
Take you under waterfall
And kiss you
There’ll be no sleeping
‘Cause he’s brand new
And you dreamed this too
And then your mind slips
To who you’re supposedly with
And you say, «oh shit»
But his grip is tingling your fingertips
So why bother with it
And he’s saying to you

Be here now
Be here now
While I am still around
Be here now

By mellow candlelight we write in our old school bus
Too tired of arguing so we’ve just given up
And in the background I hear, «enough is enough»
So I started moving farther west
Just me and my guitar and what we manifest
We are well worn, we are blessed
I see a city fuel my fight
I see some damn good years in a countryside
I see quiet, quiet life
There’s a tall brick building in the middle of town
That’s where several years later she still lives by the vow
The same words, to this day, I love to sing out loud

I’m gonna be here now
Be here now
While we are still around
Be here now

I’m gonna be, I’m gonna be here now
I’m gonna be, I’m gonna be here now
I’m gonna be, I’m gonna be here now
I’m gonna be, I’m gonna be here now
I’m gonna be, I’m gonna be here now
