Scott Malcom: Music

now

Written in February of 2004, this song is a goodbye to the old and a happy hello to the new.

I stumbled though another blind date last night.

Can't deny the chemistry, but we'll have to wait and see.

My feet have left the ground, and I can't come down.

Send out the message that I like the one I'm kissing...

Send out the message that I like the one I'm kissing now.

 

I spoke a eulogy in my dreams last night.

I said my parting words alone in the dark.

The flowers were dead and you weren't there.

Send out the message that the body is missing.

I can feel the fog is lifting and I like the one I'm kissing now.

 

REFRAIN

Captain of the boat, can you throw a life preserver?

I think that I'm in over my head.

I can feel my body sinking and the undertow is pulling.

Should I bury my head in the sand instead?

 

I saw forever in my arms last night.

I could feel the happiness without any pain.

Where's my point of reference? Is this feeling right?

Send out the message that I think that I can do this.

Send out the message that I want to explore this now.

Look at me now.
