Up on a telephone wire
Next to a mourning dove
Looking out 99 miles
With gratitude and love

I say now
Thank you for right now
Here and now

Way, way out in the desert
Up and over the grade
Looking out 99 miles
At all the things that time has made

I say now
Thank you for right now
Here and now

This summer night the moonlit shadows trace
Your hair so gently blowing
Across the outline of your face

Close my eyes at midnight
Cool breeze through the screen
Feel your body glowing
Slip into a dream

I say now
Thank you for right now
Here and now
