Now is always the best time because
No time like the present of what will be
Now is all there is or ever was
No time like the present and now for me
To be to unwrap the present: but how?
It was so long ago we did not know
Not yet anyway like we do today
That everything we did was dangerous
As we unwittingly endangered us
But then we survived and now we are here
When we have arrived and when we appear
And when we must be then we must be now
So nice to be current and concurrent too
So nice to be now then when now is with you
