Right Here Right Now
BWO & Velvet Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Head on my shoulder, I'll pour myself a glass
Wait 'til we're somewhere closer to a lake
Then make a sad face and tell me it's too late
Right now and right here
My love oh my dear
I'll try to be clear
Over and over, you wanted me play
Head on my shoulder, there's nothing left to say
Wait 'til we're somewhere closer to the sea
Then we can jump and pretend we disagree
Right now and right here
My love oh my dear
I'll try to be clear
Over and over, we're turning off the light
Even the warriors are always great at night
Wait 'til we're somewhere closer to the moon
Then you can kiss me and say that it's too soon
Right now and right here
My love oh my dear...
Faces under water
Look much closer when they appear
Your hand on my shoulder
We'll be older in a year
In the morning after
Should I laugh or disappear?
The lyrics of BWO and Velvet's song Right Here Right Now portray a couple who are trying to live in the moment and savor the time they have together. The singer repeats "Over and over, you wanted it so fast," indicating that their partner is eager for their relationship to progress quickly. However, the singer responds by wanting to take things slowly, stating "Wait 'til we're somewhere closer to a lake / Then make a sad face and tell me it's too late." This suggests that the singer is aware of the fleeting nature of their love and wants to savor each moment as much as possible.
The chorus then emphasizes the importance of the present moment, with the singer declaring "Right now and right here / My love oh my dear / I'll try to be clear." The couple wants to enjoy each other's company while they can, even if they sometimes disagree or have nothing left to say.
As the song progresses, the singer acknowledges that in the future, they will be older and things may not be the same as they are now. The line "Faces under water / Look much closer when they appear" could indicate that memories may become distorted or harder to recall over time. The singer wonders whether they will still feel the same about their partner in the morning after, and whether they will still be as connected as they are right now.
Line by Line Meaning
Over and over, you wanted it so fast
You kept trying to rush things repeatedly
Head on my shoulder, I'll pour myself a glass
I'll comfort you while pouring myself a drink, as it seems like you need it
Wait 'til we're somewhere closer to a lake
Let's wait until we're in the right place to have this conversation
Then make a sad face and tell me it's too late
Then give me a sad expression and say it's too late to work things out
Right now and right here
Let's focus on the present moment
My love oh my dear
Expressing affection towards the partner
I'll try to be clear
I'll do my best to communicate my thoughts and feelings
Over and over, you wanted me play
You repeatedly asked me to do things to please you
There's nothing left to say
There's no more words left to express the situation
Wait 'til we're somewhere closer to the sea
Let's wait until we're in the right environment to act out our plan
Then we can jump and pretend we disagree
Then we can jump in the water and continue our playful banter
Over and over, we're turning off the light
We are repeatedly avoiding addressing the issue
Even the warriors are always great at night
People can seem more confident and brave in the dark
Wait 'til we're somewhere closer to the moon
Let's wait until we're in a more magical setting
Then you can kiss me and say that it's too soon
Then you can kiss me but pretend it's too soon for such actions
Faces under water
Looking at each other underwater
Look much closer when they appear
Appearances can be deceiving, and things are revealed when looked at more closely
Your hand on my shoulder
Your reassuring touch on my shoulder
We'll be older in a year
We'll have matured and aged in a year's time
In the morning after
The morning after our experiences together
Should I laugh or disappear?
Should I find humor in the situation or escape it altogether?
