I heard it from a newborn baby
Loud and clear in that first breath of air
I heard it when Grandpa was dyin'
It was faintly there
Live now, live now
I guess it really is quite simple
But sometimes it's easier said than done
Cause all the cool rain does is fall down
And all the river does is run
And all we really have to do
Is live now, live now
We're not promised tomorrow
Like vapour these days here are fading away
Baby this time I'm holding you is borrowed
But every second by God's grace
I'm gonna live now
I've learned I can't control the future
I learned I must forgive the past somehow
Cause we are here only a moment
And life's too short to not live now
