Jack White - That Was Then, This Is Now lyrics
[Jack White - That Was Then, This Is Now lyrics]
Do you know where to go
When you're walking around at midnight?
You can look high and low
But you won't find yourself
Without a flashlight
There are plenty of ways
To explain your situation
When you're searching for love
You have no time to be patient
I looked all over town, all around
I didn't see you anymore
You were safe and sound, underground
Where I couldn't see you at all
I found myself, right at home on the shelf
While you were busy looking
For yourself there
That was then and this is now
And now the time has come
Therе was a time when a boy
Would cry alone in his room
In thе corner
And it's a crime that his toys would
Turn to stone like their original owners
But that was then and this is now
We all just figure it out somehow
Yes, we do
Ain't it true?
Find yourself over the hill
Break your crown, Jack and Jill
In the open or underground
Are you making plans or just making sounds?
Looking up and over the moon
You can find yourself
But don't find it too soon
Yeah, but don't find it too soon
Take your time, but don't find it too soon
I looked all over town, all around
I couldn't find you anywhere
You were safe underground, not a sound
Disappearing into thin air
When you're walking around at midnight?
You can look high and low
But you won't find yourself
Without a flashlight
There are plenty of ways
To explain your situation
When you're searching for love
You have no time to be patient
I looked all over town, all around
I didn't see you anymore
You were safe and sound, underground
Where I couldn't see you at all
I found myself, right at home on the shelf
While you were busy looking
For yourself there
That was then and this is now
And now the time has come
Therе was a time when a boy
Would cry alone in his room
In thе corner
And it's a crime that his toys would
Turn to stone like their original owners
But that was then and this is now
We all just figure it out somehow
Yes, we do
Ain't it true?
Find yourself over the hill
Break your crown, Jack and Jill
In the open or underground
Are you making plans or just making sounds?
Looking up and over the moon
You can find yourself
But don't find it too soon
Yeah, but don't find it too soon
Take your time, but don't find it too soon
I looked all over town, all around
I couldn't find you anywhere
You were safe underground, not a sound
Disappearing into thin air
