Lyrics for "Now" are extracted from and based on a poem of the same name by Campbell McGrath. It is a wish a dream The house of just this moment We live in it now After the clouds have passed The river floods the valley The future does not exist They grow and we hew them for home It strikes a spark and the forest burns They grow and we hew them for home It strikes a spark and the forest burns It burns It burns It burns It burns It burns But the trees remember Their claim upon the land The past does not exist It is the house of this Of just this every moment We live in it Now
