Here and now I want to be the one for you
In everything you want me to
Cause I couldn't live if were apart
Time is running out on you and me
Cause nothings what it used to be
I guess I'm the only one to blame
Forget all the sorrows you bear within tonight
Believe in me when I say
[Chorus]
Say there is something I can do
If I can make it up to you
For every time I let you down
And I promise you to make it right
Forget all the sorrows you bear within tonight
Believe in me when I say
[Chorus]
Here and now lets tear down the walls together
It's better late than never
I know that we could find a way here and now
I'll be there for you
[Chorus: x2]
Here and now I want to fall in love again
And try to be the best I can
So give me a chance to win your heart

You're a few years older than me. I agree, music nowadays doesn't match the classics we had.
