You Can Have Me Now

I'm back in town for a little while
Until I'm back on my feet
I needed a break from the extra mile
And I saw that you still live on our street

I forgot the fire in your eyes
And the warmth of your hands
But I never forgot your advice
"The best mistakes are often unplanned"
I'm ready to make one again

As I'm knocking on your door
Knowing I'm not part of you anymore
But I'm lonely and longing for
Something to keep me warm for the winter

Oh when summer's here to stay
I'll be on my way
No, we can't have forever
But we can have today
One day I will walk out
You'll still be here, so no
You can't have me forever
But you can have me now
You can have me now, now

I still recall our last endeavor
Before I hopped the red train
We knew that we weren't forever
'Cause when you held me I felt pain

But you're still opening your door
Knowing you're not part of me anymore
'Cause we're lonely and longing for
One another 'cause we're warmer together

Oh when summer's here to stay
I'll be on my way
No, we can't have forever
But we can have today
One day I will walk out
You'll still be here, so no
You can't have me forever
But you can have me now
You can have me now, now

Oh my dear, how did I get here?
I lost sight of me in the big city
Everybody shined so bright
That I thought I might burn out
And then one night I thought of you
And how we used to rendezvous
Oh I'll be gone by the time the snow melts
This is what we're dealt

Then when summer's here to stay
I'll be on my way
No, we can't have forever
But we can have today
One day I will walk out
You'll still be here, so no
You can't have me forever
But you can have me now
You can have me now
You can have me now

You're not my forever
You're never forever
But it feels nice to say
"You're mine here and now"
