This is about a couple who's love has passed the test of time.

Right Here, Right Now

Verse:
Sitting on the porch steps, dreaming 'bout the future
It's crystal clear what I want, ain’t a single blur 
We're smoothing out our plans, naming our kids
I can already see the baby pictures, a spark is being lit

Pre-Chorus:
We are young, but so far ahead
I know it will work, I can feel it in my head

Chorus:
Right now, I’m walking down the aisle
Your sparkly blue eyes smile at mine
You take my hand and say to me
“I love you, that’s the way it will always be”
It’s hard for me to not just shut you up and kiss you
Because every second you ain’t in my arms I miss you
And we’ll say our vows, right here, right now

Verse:
Taking the baby pictures, a tear comes to my eye
Because of the beauties that are now mine
No other love has ever brought me this much joy
For once in my life, I ain’t being played with like a toy

Pre-Chorus:
Young at heart, but ancient in experience
What will this grow to? I am curious

Chorus:
Right now, I’m driving down the highway
She’s going off to college, seems like it’s been just a day
You take my hand and say to me
“It’ll be okay, you gotta let her free”
It’s hard for me to not smile and cry with all the pride in the world
We raised her good, but now she’s gone, our baby girl
And we’ll ride this storm out, right here, right now

Bridge: 
If we can last 30 years, we can last 30 more
We can survive a hurricane if we survived that slamming door

Chorus:
Right now, I’m holding another baby
I hope “Grandma” is her first word, well, maybe
You take my hand and say to me
“This is where we were always meant to be”
It’s hard for me to keep it together, I’m overflowing with bliss
You had me locked on you since that very first kiss
And we figured it out, right here right now

Outro:
Sittin’ on the porch step, remembering when we were still in high school
