in front of me now

Nada Surf

I used to be dreaming when i was driving
I used to be leaving when i was arriving
I used to be calling when i was walking
I used to be thinking when i was talking

I used to be counting when i was sharing
I used to be blanking when i was staring
I used to be rolling when i was parking
I used to be raining when i was sparking

Today, i do what s in front of me now
Today, i do what s in front of me now

I used to be stopping while i was trying
I used to be landing before i was flying
I used to be haunting not just remembering
In the middle of summer, i was decembering

Always re-writing what i was reading
But also doubting what i was conceiving
I used to be dropping when i was collecting
I could have been building, but i was dissecting

Today, i do what s in front of me now
Today, i do what s in front of me, what s in front of me
I do what s in front of me now

I used to be missing when i was kissing
Why wasn t i present? i could have been living
I used to be dodging when i was catching
I used to be dying, i could have been hatching

I used to be drowning when i was drinking
I was only masking, i could have been feeling
You used to surround me whenever you found me
I could have learned more from the friends i had ?round me

I used to be falling when i was leaning
Catastrophe courting, i could have been dreaming
I was careening, looking for meaning
Wish i was relaxing, i could have been breathing

Today, i do what s in front of me now
Today, i do what s in front of me, what s in front of me
Oh there s too many lanes
There s too much to see in the frame at once
There s too much to contain
Oh there s too much terrain
I can never explain it all
It s too much for my brain
Today, i do what s in front of me, what s in front of me
I do what s in front of me now
