everything now is now later
my plans are dreams
that are years or months ahead
and they're closer than they seem.

when does it all become today?
do i really start to live then too?
we see it happen all the time,
but never does it happen to you.

i feel like im drifting
and the water moves beneath me
with the current trying to drag me in;
the constant moving of the sea.

i think i know what i want
and i think it will somehow turn out right
with hope and wonder fueling
the ever-flickering light.

everything now is now later
my plans are dreams
that are days or hours ahead
and they're closer than they seem.
