about
Be Here Now is a Roots Pop Rock oriented song with very beautiful sunshine Reggae colors. Arlan Oscar’s accordion brings a tasty ‘Joi de vivre’ from the intro and throughout, while acoustic and electric guitars create an engaging, optimistic mood, uplifting and enlightening in equal parts.
The song is an auto biographic confessional about a desire to leave hang ups and stumbling blocks behind and live authentically a simple truth that anxieties of life can remove you from.
Big thanks again to Shannon Michael Terry for this photograph and the superb video and to Michael Gunnar Murray for the fabulous Artwork.
Please do play it loud when you are driving, when you are dancing alone in your living room and secretly on your headphones if you are back at work!
lyrics
BE HERE NOW
Victoria C. Scott & Alfonso G. Rodenas
My mind flutters all around
I wanna Be Here Now
Past and present speeding past
I’ve been living in a frozen box.
You, can’t hang onto the good
Can’t hang onto the bad
It comes in waves
I gotta let go
Time is moving, it won’t last!
I wanna be with you, be here now
Every second of every hour
I’m gonna be with you , be here now
Everyday, every night.
I've been running, running fast
As fast as I can
Getting away from a bogeyman
Putting up fences all my life.
Climbing the ladder of success
Muddled intentions, getting it wrong
Fighting all this time to realize
All gone, it’s all gone .
I wanna be with you, be here now
Every second of every hour
I’m gonna be with you, be here now
Everyday, every night.
I wanna be with you, be here now
Every second of every hour
I’m gonna be with you, be here now
Everyday of my life.
Take my breath like it’s a silver spoon
Dance on fire up to the moon
Count the petals of a rose
Lie about and hang out.
I wanna be with you, be here now
Every second of every hour
I’m gonna be with you, be here now
Everyday of my life.
With You
With You it's alright!
With You
With You it's alright!
I'm gonna be here now
Be here now
I'm gonna be here now
Be here now
Every second of every hour of my Life.
