Right Here Right Now
Kylie Minogue 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

Kylie Minogue's song Right Here Right Now is an upbeat, empowering tune that celebrates the present moment and the joy of being with someone you love. 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 sometimes it takes a dramatic event or accomplishment to make us see what's important in life. The song goes on to declare the power of love, asserting that no other pursuit, whether it be seeking love or chasing the holy grail, can compare to the feeling of being with the right person. The repeated refrain, "There's nowhere else but right here, right now," reinforces the message that the present moment is sacred and that making the most of it is the key to happiness.


In some ways, Right Here Right Now is a departure from Kylie Minogue's earlier material, which tended to be more lightweight and dance-oriented. Here, the lyrics are more thoughtful and personal, expressing a desire for connection and intimacy that feels very real. The track was produced by Giorgio Moroder, who also worked with Minogue on her hit song "Love at First Sight," and the two clearly have a strong creative rapport. The sound of the song is lush and synth-heavy, with a pounding beat that propels the listener forward.
