Maggie Rose - Now and Then Lyrics

Sweet child, if I had a time machine
I would tell you everything
You're living in a world so mean
Dear girl, let me say for what it's worth
There's gonna be some lessons learned
And they're gonna hurt, hurt, hurt
When you wanna grow up too fast
Remember that the hard times won't last
Don't you try numb the pain and runaway
'Cause there's a place for yesterday, yeah

Only every now and then, I let myself pretend
I could unbreak my heart and start over again
Always 20:20 looking back
But that ain't gonna change the past
Thank God, I know the difference

From now and then
From now and then
From now and then

Old flames, I remember all too well
Some still burn like hell
But they taught me how to love myself
I know how to bend cause I've been broken
I can see my world with eyes wide open
And I won't erase mistakes I've made
'Cause there's a place for yesterday, yeah

Only every now and then, I let myself pretend
I could unbreak my heart and start over again
Always 20:20 looking back
But that ain't gonna change the past
Thank God, I know the difference

From now and then
From now and then
From now and then
From now

I still got a ways to go and I still got room to grow
Feels like I'm getting close, but sometimes I don't know
Still got a ways to go and I still got room to grow
Feels like I'm getting close, but sometimes, sometimes

Only every now and then, I let myself pretend
I could unbreak my heart and start over again
Always 20:20 looking back
But that ain't gonna change the past
Thank God, I know the difference

From now and then
From now and then
From now and then
From now and then
