Live In The Now Lyrics - Ellis Paul

I've got a farm house, 

It's a big white farmhouse 

And forty acres in my head 

You got a kitchen, 

It's an oak floor kitchen 

And a big brass feather bed 

And there in the parlor, 

An old upright piano 

And a precocious blue-eyed kid 

Playing the keys 

Playing the keys 

Live in the now 

A room with a view of cambridge 

Live in the now 

Traffic, noise, and neighborhood kids 

We're sitting in the kitchen 

You reach cross the table 

And put a finger on my wrinkled brow 

You say, "live in the now, 

Live in the now" 

'cause life is what happens 

When you're busy making plans 

That's what john lennon said 

Then he quit the phuckin' band 

Tell me which part 

Is it the castle, or the sand 

That you miss when the tide comes along? 

I'm alone on a highway 

Only silos break the view 

A field of sunflowers 

A scarecrow paying dues 

And I think to myself 

"man, that's not what I'd choose " 

But here I am, and look where I've gone 

All for the song 

Till the tide comes along 

Live in the now 

An audience is waiting 

Live in the now 

Whose day are you creating? 

I slip into to the hotel 

I put the phone on a pillow 

Your voice makes it better somehow 

You say, "live in the now" 

"live in the now"
