What About Now
KIDZ BOP Kids Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Shadows fill an empty heart as love is fading
From all the things that we are but are not saying
Can we see beyond the scars, make it to the dawn?

Change the colors of the sky and open up to
The ways you made me feel alive the ways I loved you
For all the things that never died
Make it through the night, love will find you

What about now, what about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby before it's too late, what about now?

The sun is breaking in your eyes to start a new day
This broken heart can still survive with a touch of your grace
Shadows fade into the light
I am by your side where love will find you

What about now, what about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?
What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby before it's too late, what about now?

There is nothing to fear for I am right beside you
For all my life I am yours

What about now, what about today?
What if you're making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?




What if it's lost behind words we could never find?
Baby before it's too late, what about now?

My heart is hollow as our love is dying, darkness is creeping in

Can we move past our wounds and reach a brighter future?

Let's change our perspective and be receptive to
