Why do people look outside?
Why do people live their lives?
Constantly searching all the time, for what they think they need
Why do they keep searching round?
Why do they keep losing ground?
As all the things that matter, just simply pass them by
Because the past is where the past belongs
And the future's just a future song
Whilst the here and now is all there is
It's all you need to see
Cos it's all there'll ever be
Cos it's all there'll ever be
Cos it's all there'll ever be
Because the past is where the past belongs
It's all you need you see
Cos it's all there'll ever be
Why do people keep pushing on?
Stressing on to the next demand
Thinking that the next big push, will be the final one
Constantly chase a distant dream
Believing the dream, is what it seems
Thinking the answer is waiting round the bend
Because the past is where the past belongs
And the future's just a future song
Whilst the here and now is all there is
It's all you need to see
Cos it's all there'll ever be
Cos it's all there'll ever be
Cos it's all there'll ever be
Because the past is where the past belongs
It's all you need you see
Cos it's all there'll ever be
Emancipate yourself from chains
Choose within, the chance to change
This gift belongs to everyone, just waiting to be found
The next moment is going to come
The one before has been and gone
The now is all there ever is, and all's that will remain
Because the past is where the past belongs
And the future's just a future song
Whilst the here and now is all there is
It's all you need to see
Cos it's all there'll ever be
Cos it's all there'll ever be
Cos it's all there'll ever be
Because the past is where the past belongs
It's all you need you see
Cos it's all there'll ever be
So break free from yourself, as you
Don't stop yourself cos they tell you to
Just live your life, you've only got the one
Don't wait until the now has been
Cos the here and now is waiting
Don't spend your time stuck in the past
Just stop your hesitating
Because the past is where the past belongs
And the future's just a future song
Whilst the here and now is all there is
It's all you need to see
Cos it's all there'll ever be
