Now Is The Hour
Jennifer Rush Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where my heart lives
Here in this moment's
Perfect gift
Unafraid of the years
Or a wasted kiss
Now is the hour
Where my heart lives
Tomorrow may sleep
But sure as time
Will wake and steal
All the youth that was mine
Now while your breath
Is still fresh on my lips
Now is the hour
Where my heart lives
Now is the hour
Where my heart lives
Here in this moment's
Perfect gift
Unafraid of the years
Or a wasted kiss
Now is the hour
Where my heart lives
Now is the hour
Where my heart lives.
