Lyrics
And Now's The Time
Music & Lyrics by:
Will Pailen
Verse 1
Sitting alone
And I'm wondering why things have to be such a fight
I pick up the phone
And my friends keep saying to me it's gonna be alright
A burning inside
The truth keeps saying to me there's something different
And I don't know why
But it's pulling at me to make a different choice
Chorus
I am ready to learn how to fly
To open up touch the sky
I'm taking the reigns my heart says go now
You're almost off the ground
I gotta go no time to lose
If I wait I may just choose
Not to go I've waited all my life
And now's the time
Verse 2
Remembering back
To the times I used to share the dreams I had
I made a promise
That no matter what happened I wouldn't let life get so bad
Now it's time
It's time to see another day
It lies within
And now my heart has got to lead the way
Chorus
I am ready to learn how to fly
To open up touch the sky
I'm taking the reigns my heart says go now
You're almost off the ground
I gotta go no time to lose
If I wait I may just choose
Not to go I've waited all my life
And now's the time
I am ready to learn how to fly
To open up touch the sky
I'm taking the reigns my heart says go now
You're almost off the ground
I gotta go no time to lose
If I wait I may just choose
Not to go I've waited all my life
And now's the
Bridge
Time to let go
And let life lead the way
It's today that I make the choice
To take the steps
In directions
That I have to go
Now's the time
To see the way
The way
Chorus
I am ready to learn how to fly Let's fly...
To open up touch the sky
I'm taking the reigns my heart says go now
You're almost off the ground
I gotta go no time to lose Get up off the ground, get up
If I wait I may just choose
Not to go I've waited all my life
I've got to go I've waited all my life
I've got to go I've waited all my life
And now's the time
