Vow to Here and Now
Life's a game and I wanna play
between mistakes and raising stakes
Set me back and I'll get the knack
one day,
to find out
it's here and now
Tread where none have trod before,
ignoring goals and/or playing roles
Embracing life's uncertainty,
today
we vow
to here and now
Against all odds, against the tide,
learn to swim and enjoy your ride
swimming up up against the tide
If experience is a comb
life gives you when your hair is gone,
grow a beard or pass the baton
to straigh–
straighten out
life here and now
Make it hard or it ain't no fun:
The rule's 'you lose
when you think you've won',
'cause looking for a prize
only strains the eyes
So stay,
stay and vow
to here and now
Shout 'the game is now'
Now, now, now, now, now
Against all odds, against the tide,
learn to swim and enjoy your ride
swimming up up against the tide
Life's a game and we wanna play
between mistakes and raising stakes
We've been set back but we get the knack
today,
today we vow
to here and now
