[Intro]
Okay, one take, one take

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
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

[Chorus]
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
