Okay, one take, one take

This whole world's always waitin' on tomorrow

Itchin', fiendin' for whatever happens next

What if I told you they're all lying

And I love you for who you are right now the best

Everyone thinks they're going the wrong way

But they're looking at their maps all wrong

'Cause everywhere's somewhere to someone

And in a rush you cannot dance to smooth slow songs

So I'm gonna slow on down someway somehow

Today ain't different from the rest

And the you that I pine for

Oh the you that I need

Oh the you of right now is the best

This hatin' heart healed by the hopeful

And I think I got a song that you'll like

It’s awfully long and such a throatful

But it's perfect for a night like tonight

About you on the coastin' water

Those wild waves crashed 'cross your skin

One of those days you miss already

And it ain't even had the damn chance to end

And I think grandfather's gone crazy

He keeps ramblin' on about way back when

Braggin' 'bout grandma and war times

All the friends that he's lost once again

So I'm gonna slow on down someway somehow

Today ain't different from the rest

Oh the you that I pine for

Oh the you that I need

Oh the you of right now is the best
