Right Here Right Now
Giorgio Moroder Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

When the lights start flashing
It can open up your eyes
And the highest mountain
Is the one that you have climbed
(Yeah)

I can look for love
'Til the skies ain't blue
I can look for love
To get over you
I can look for love
For a deeper kiss
Nothing ever felt
As good as this

Staring in your eyes, I see the sun rise
There's nowhere else but right here, right now
No deeper feeling, this is the real thing
There's nowhere else but right here, right now

Oh
There's nowhere else but right here, right now
Oh
There's nowhere else but right here, right now

It's a never ending
Promise of the holy grail
But the space I'm in it feels so real
Gotta sit back and exhale
(Yeah)

I can look for love
'Til the skies ain't blue
I can look for love
To get over you
I can look for love
For a deeper kiss
Nothing ever felt
As good as this

Staring in your eyes, I see the sun rise
There's nowhere else but right here, right now
No deeper feeling, this is the real thing
There's nowhere else but right here, right now

Oh
There's nowhere else but right here, right now
Oh
There's nowhere else but right here, right now

Do it right here, right now tonight

'Cause the way that you hold me tonight
Makes me feel like there's nowhere else I'd rather be
Than right here, right now tonight
Yeah right here, right now tonight

Oh
There's nowhere else but right here, right now
Oh
There's nowhere else but right here, right now




Oh
There's nowhere else but right here, right now

Overall Meaning

In "Right Here Right Now," Giorgio Moroder and Kylie Minogue create an electronic dance track about being in the present moment and letting go of the past. The opening lines "When the lights start flashing, it can open up your eyes, and the highest mountain is the one that you have climbed" suggest that the flashing lights of a club can provide a momentary glimpse of clarity, and that the biggest achievement in life is being present in the moment. The chorus reinforces this idea: "there's nowhere else but right here, right now, no deeper feeling, this is the real thing." The song is about finding love in the present moment; no matter how hard you search for it, love is ultimately found when it is least expected.


The verse "I can look for love to get over you" implies that the singer has recently experienced heartbreak and is searching for a deeper connection to forget about a past love. The chorus suggests that this deeper connection has been found in the present moment. The bridge of the song reinforces the idea of being in the present moment, with the line "the space I'm in it feels so real, gotta sit back and exhale" encouraging the listener to slow down and appreciate their surroundings.


Overall, "Right Here Right Now" is a song about embracing the present moment and finding joy in unexpected places, specifically in the arms of a loved one. The upbeat melody and electronic beats combined with Kylie Minogue's vocals make this song a dancefloor favourite.
