Just Now
Discovering Life's Rhythms: John Martyn's Journey Through Change
Lyrics
Searching back through the friends I've known
Reflecting on past friendships and acquaintances
Sometimes sad for the way it's grown
Occasionally feeling sorrowful about how those relationships have developed
Ranging up and ranging out
Exploring new territories and possibilities
And trying to change my ways about
Attempting to alter personal behaviors
There's a place in the leaf
Finding a place of belonging in nature's smallest details
A place in the bow i've found a place for me
Discovering a personal sense of belonging
Just now, just now just now
Emphasizing the immediacy of the present moment
Moving on with every word
Progressing forward with every spoken or heard word
Moving with all the words I heard
Acting in accordance with the messages or teachings received
Turning the wheel as fast as I can
Striving vigorously to progress in life
Turning the wheel to make me a man
Seeking personal growth and maturity
There's a man in the moon, a man in the sea
Imagining figures in natural elements, perhaps signifying personal reflections
Growing strong, there's a man in me
Growing stronger personally, evolving
Just now just now just now
Reiterating the emphasis on the current moment
No behind and no before
Living in the present without dwelling on the past or future
There's no need to worry any more
Letting go of worries or concerns
Happy then, happy now
Experiencing happiness then and now
There's always a way to get happy somehow
Believing there's always a way to find happiness
Friend on the road, friend in the home
Having supportive companions both in travels and at home
A better friend than I've ever known
Describing an exceptional friendship
Just now, just now just now
Emphasizing the immediacy of the present moment again
Searching back for the friends I've known
Reflecting again on past friendships
Sometimes sad for the way it's grown
Occasionally feeling sorrowful about the development of those relationships (repeated reflection)
Changing up and ranging out
Continuing to explore new territories and adapt behaviors
And trying to change my ways about
Continuing efforts to change personal ways
There's a place in the leaf
Rediscovering a sense of belonging in nature
A place in the bow i've found a place for me
Reaffirming the found place of personal belonging
Just now, just now just now, just now
Restating the emphasis on the present moment
