Now is the time
Now is the Time 1940 (Yazour)
Now is the time
Now is our only time to live, love, and have fun
Yesterday is a history that has long been gone
Tomorrow is a dream that may never come
Waiting is day-dreaming without having one
Time we own is short and always on the run
If we do not use it, we lose it and have none
Nothing can ever come back after being done
Have you ever seen a moon waiting for the sun?
