Now And Then Lyrics

Now and then I take my time
Don't wonder why and take it slow
Now and then I hit my stride
There comes a time when you must go

Yeah everybody knows these things
But I take my time to learn
Hey I don't like to show these things
In front of you I'm feeling so absurd

Now and then I realize
I lost some time that won't return
Now and then I make my bed
And sleep in it or toss and turn

Yeah everybody knows these things
But I take my time to learn
Hey I don't like to show these things
In front of you I'm feeling so absurd

Now and then I lose my head
Can't seem to get over it
Oh no I got to take my time
Can't wonder why and take it slow

Yeah everybody knows these things
But I take my time to learn
Hey I don't like to show these things
in front of you I'm feeling so absurd

Now and then I take my time
Don't wonder why and take it slow
Now and then I hit my stride
There comes a time when you must go

Yeah everybody knows these things
But I take my time to learn
Hey I don't like to show these things
In front of you I'm feeling so absurd

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
