Default Right Here and Now ( A Song Written For Jewel)

Right Here and Now

I wrote this song for Jewel (Kilcher), though after many attemtps to contact her through her websites and agents, I have yet to get her to ever listen to it. Alas, I think it's good enough to be a hit for Jewel, but in her absence, I've asked my friend, Cecilia Rockstead to sing it Right Here and Now.

Right Here and Now
Writer: Ray Palla
Performer: Cecelia Rockstead
Music: Ray Holland & Ray Palla


When you came to me, somehow life started.
Across a lonely sea, you sailed to rescue me.
No wind's too much to change a course we've charted.
And right here and now is where I want to be.

We promised on our hearts that we'll go on and on together.
I made my pledged to you and you made your pledge and trusted me,
And I knew, right here and now is where I want to be.

You know, I can't say if there is forever.
Maybe everything we have is all there'll ever be.
I'd like to think that we'll go on-and-on together.
But, just right here and now, loving you is all I need.

Sometimes the water's rough. We keep our faces to the wind.
There are days the skies erupt and try to drown us if they can.
But, we know right here and now is where we want to be.

Sometimes the weather's rough. Just keep your head up through it all.
Days the skies tear-up and lightning strikes your very soul,
Keep looking for the sun, another wind is sure to come.
And right here and now is where I want you to be.

It's a great song Roy! And I would love to hear Jewel sing it. I think it would suite Jewel's voice perfectly...

Bravo!

This is really great song. I hope there's a way that Jewel can hear this song in the nearest time possible.

It's really good. The writer Ray Palla had been wanting Jewel to hear this song for years now. Through this, I hope we can help him.
