What About Now
Daughtry · Daughtry [2006]
As love is fading
From all the things that we are
And are not saying
Can we see beyond the scars
And make it to the dawn
Change the colors of the sky
And open up to
The ways you made me feel alive
The ways I loved you
For all the things that never died
To make it through the night
Love will find you
What About Now
What about today
What if you're making me
All that I was meant to be
What if our love never went away
What if it's lost behind
Words we could never find
Baby before its too late
What About Now
The sun is breaking in your eyes
To start a new day
This broken heart can still survive
With the touch of your grace
As shadows fade into the light
I am by your side where love will find you
What About Now
What about today
What if you're making me
All that I was meant to be
What if our love never went away
What if it's lost behind
Words we could never find
Baby before its too late
What About Now
Now that we're here
Now that we've come this far, just hold on
There is nothing to fear
For I am right beside you
For all my life I am yours
What About Now
What about today
What if you're making me
All that I was meant to be
What if our love never went away
What if it's lost behind
Words we could never find
What About Now
What about today
What if you're making me
All that I was meant to be
What if our love never went away
What if it's lost behind
Words we could never find
Baby before its too late
Baby before its too late
Baby before its too late
