Now and Then

Coffee stained cups out on her window sill
If it's mine or hers we’ll make it out
When we play upon the notion of who will wash the dishes
Wasn't sure then what I wanted, now I think that this is it

I should've listened to the call
Just as blossoms act as fleeting signs to mark
The everlasting spring, and a too impatient summer

Now and then, I worry all my time away
Now and then, I hurry through my glory days

Give this more thought
I’m helpless against the ticking time that plagues us all
And it's barely been a minute since I learned to crawl
Could you hold my hand, I'm terrified of another stage of life
And of every passing hour

Now and then, I worry all my time away
Now and then, I hurry through my glory days

Have you ever seen a tree so old it made you kind of sad?
That the branches and the leaves we've grown is all we've ever had
When the snow is melted and the grander forest comes to view
Will I still cherish anything? Will I still cherish you?

Slow down, slow down
I can't slow down, despite the peace that I've found
I can't slow down, slow down

Now and then, I worry all my time away
Now and then, I hurry through my glory days
