Story Behind The Song

I wanted to write a song about not wasting time.

Song Description

When it's the right time it usually is.

Lyrics

The Right Time
Mark Harrison ASCAP

You always had something that I never could explain
And then you turned your eye on me
When we got together your friends were all amazed
They wondered what it was you could see.
You must have seen something that I never knew I had
Somehow it must have shown.
We hardly had to speak cause I read it in your eyes
The one thing that we both know.

Right now is the right time
It's the time of our lives
Right now is the moment
It's the moment when every thing's right
It's the time, it's the time of our lives.

I used to drift around with my head up in the clouds
Waiting for my life to begin.
And if you hadn't come along I might have been a guy
Who cries about "what could have been"
When you opened up my eyes and I finally looked around
I knew that I would be okay.
The time is here and now for happiness and love
Let's not wait another day

(Chorus)

It wasn't long ago
I just didn't care
And I was happy to to watch
My life not going anywhere.
Something changed
And the change is plain to see
Cause all along I just needed
Someone,
Who believed in me.

Right now is the right time
It's the time of our lives
Right now is the moment
It's the moment when every thing's right
Right now is the right time
It's the time of our lives
Right now is the moment
It's the moment when every thing's right
It's the time, it's the time of our lives.
