America - Here & Now Lyrics






Here and now, here and now
All the future will allow
Here and now, space in time
Turn the tables, toe the line
Toe the line, toe the line

Here and now
Where people change their names
And play the waiting game
All in the name of fame
Here and now, we're ships upon the shore
We're free to run no more
It's time to lock the doors

Here I am, there you are
Miles between us far too far, far too far
It's far too far
In this life we've ridden through the rain
Flown across the plains
We're going down in flames
Comes a time with little more to say
It seems like yesterday
And now it's blown away

Shalala oola shalala, shalala oola shalala, shalala oola shalala, ooh...

    America rocks!!!
    They're products of soldiers, like myself, we went went through High School together. I was the President of the Teen Club (: claim to fame :), where they performed every weekend at our dances.
    We were on the football and track teams together.
    I, also, set up equipment, microphones etc., for them. I'm embarrassed to recall one night, I flicked the Mic with my index finger & thumb stating "testing, testing,.... one... two... testing...1..2. " then I hear, in a somber tone, Jerry B. saying, "turn the damn thing on, Chuck"! "!duuuhah!" is all I could laughingly utter! Those were the days ! Rock on America!!! So Jerry brings my blunder of blunders up some almost forty years later; Ouch!!!!, at the Fraze Pavilion, no less! Hey everybody makes mistakes, don't they ?!?

    C.... H....

    Great memories!!!

  6. S.... S....

    Amazing to know they were one of very few bands (think the "Beatles") to be produced by the late, great George Martin.

  13. M.... ....

    This was a real treat to watch and listen too. I am a musician and grew up in the 70's as a kid with a mom who drove a 1970 Pinto with am radio. These songs sound so good and timeless and now I will def buy the record. So thanks for posting it.

  14. J.... K....

    I love the ''Always Love'' cover !!! Thank you, Nada Surf are my favourite band :D

  18. m.... ....

    For the past 35 years when people ask about the best pop song of all time , simple VENTURA HIGHWAY - AMERICA .This album has some great tracks ,my fav Indian Summer . PS . when are the guys coming back to OZ ?

  19. p.... ....

    Iha nailed it: America's sound is timeless. Recently we pulled out the old vinyls - the songs on the original America and Homecoming albums are still so contemporary. Here and Now should be a classic, too -- great music! Please keep songwriting and recording new material, Dewey and Gerry! There's a new generation waiting to discover America!

  20. a.... ....

    HELP!!! I purchased this album on line from iTunes when it was released, and I'm sure it came with a digital booklet. Well, I seem to have lost said booklet somewhere in Cyberspace, and most of the songs DON'T have songwriting credits listed in the info!...Wikipedia has the songs listed, but again, no writing credits! Can someone help me out here???? Thanks!

  21. r.... ....

    I must say they aged well, and they sound better than a lot of other aging rock stars.

  22. L.... ....

    I just heard this album for the first time. Each and every new track has a wonderful sound, except for one. Only one. Very impressive. "Indian Summer" is amazing. Nice find.

  23. x.... ....

    God i love Gerry!

  24. r.... ....

    wow...who would have thought of this kind of collaboration... I have to get this album

  25. J.... K....

    yes definitely. Amaj7 and Dmaj7 in the intro and I think there's a Bm in there somewhere too. it's a killer track and the Maplewood version is as equally killer! is it just me or does Gerry Beckley look like Stewart Copeland's latter day doppelganger? :D

  26. B.... ....

    Just saw America perform at the London Apollo 2 days ago - they were awesome and played four tracks from this new album and they were instantly recognizable as "classic America" can't wait to get the album now!

  27. T.... P....

    "Always Love" is my favorite track.

  28. m.... ....

    legends,one of the best bans ever

  29. R.... R....

    I saw them in the early 70,s when Horse with no name was in the charts , looking forward to seeing the guys perform again in March at Wolverhampton

  30. b.... s....

    wow! he sounded like billy corgan!

    yeah! especially the ventura hightway..

  31. d.... ....

    I already love it!
