now
Steven Lee Olsen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's a beautiful mystery,
How people find one another,
How we can fall in love.
And we don't know how it happens but it does.
All the pieces fit together and the world stops, yeah.
Nothing else matters.
Oh, nothing at all.
I've been wondering.
Something is coming.

It's here and now.
Yeah, my empty spaces, girl you erased them
All somehow,
And the moment I met ya
I could've bet you'd be
All that I'd ever need,
Yeah, there's nothing I'm missing now.

Yeah, there's nothing I'm missing

Now it's undeniable,
That you made me believe the unbelievable,
That you gave me the only thing
That I didn't know I didn't have.
And now it's obvious, looking back,
That I had to have you.
Now I do.

I've been waiting,
Hoping, praying.

It's here and now.
Yeah, my empty spaces, girl you erased them
All somehow,
And the moment I met ya
I could've bet you'd be
All that I'd ever need,
Yeah, there's nothing I'm missing now.

Nothing I'm missing now.

Oh, I've been wondering
When something was coming.

It's here and now.
Yeah, my empty spaces, girl you erased them
All somehow,
And the moment I met ya
I could've bet you'd be
More than I'd ever need,




Yeah, there's nothing I'm missing,
Nothing I'm missing now.
