Temperance Here & Now Lyrics

The clock is ticking far too fast for you and me tonight
In this labyrinth for sure we're gonna lose our minds
Hold me tight, the dawn is near
And my tears, they are for real
And there is nothing left to say

A stream of passion
One life, so short
Enjoy every moment
Like it's your last one
Time never turns back
Choose the direction
Don't look behind
Always take action
Search for perfection

Why do we always forget to enjoy the time we have
And we keep on worrying about silly things?
So we waste it on and on
Then we realize that thoughts
Do not matter anymore at all for us

Every second, every breath
Are like gold, so be aware
They are the most precious gifts
(Every second, every breath)

And I don't wanna miss a word nor any glimpse tonight
And I assure that I will keep them all locked in my mind
Here and now, hold me dear
Let us taste this life for real
‘Cause tomorrow's near and so I will not fall asleep

And with every breath you take
You're getting stronger But also older
I admit I cannot help worrying ‘cause the sun is here
And you are leaving
It is useless but I still fight against the coming dawn
Trying to hide with a curtain all the light
Every second, every breath are like gold, so don't be scared

And I don't wanna miss a word nor any glimpse tonight
And I assure that I will keep them all locked in my mind
Here and now, hold me dear
Let us taste this life for real
‘Cause tomorrow's near and so I will not fall asleep

A stream of passion
One life, so short
Enjoy every moment
Like it's your last one
Time never turns back

And I don't wanna miss a word nor any glimpse tonight
And I assure that I will keep them all locked in my mind
Here and now, hold me dear
Let us taste this life for real
‘Cause tomorrow's near and so I will not fall asleep

And I don't care if I'll be given one last night to live
For as long as you're here I don't wanna fall asleep
I don't wanna fall asleep
I don't wanna fall asleep
