[Verse 1]
We wanna grow up, we wanna stay young
We wanna crawl, wanna walk, wanna run
Gotta get started, gotta get done
Still hear my daddy say, "Son"

[Chorus]
Here and now is here and gone
It don't hang around, so just hang on
This ride called "life," it won't last long
Don't look now, this here and now
Is here and gone

[Verse 2]
We ask God, "Why?" and then, "Why not?"
Wish it was cold, then we wish it was hot
We want everything, except for what we got
Meanwhile, time's on the clock

[Chorus]
Here and now is here and gone
It don't hang around, so just hang on
This ride called "lifе," it won't last long
Don't look now, this here and now
Is herе and gone
[Bridge]
There it goes
How many more we got, Heaven only knows

[Chorus]
Here and now is here and gone
It won't hang around, so just hang on
This ride called "life," it won't last long
Don't look now, this here and now
Is here and gone
Don't look now, this here and now
Is here and gone
