I'm walking downtown in the rain I'll probably catch a cold or something But it's my mumbling That's got me more concerned See I can't find the words to think I'm holding on to memories That have gone and left me 'Cause I can't focus on the now It's always when I get this Nintendo, Or when I find the right girl, Or I used to be in great shape, That are bearing down on me So I close my eyes, I close my eyes And I try to realize the power of now Hold everything This is a moment here There's nothing that the Past or the future can settle The weight on my mind Slowly lifts as I realize The power of now And I'm finally waiting I'm waiting for nothing I'd like to wear a Buddha smile Find what it is that's worth my while To ride some timelessness Into a state of peace But we're only less than holy Wandering through these towns alone I close my eyes, I try to fall into The power of now
