Lyrics
WHAT'S NOW, WHAT'S NEXT
Words and Music by James Keith Norman
VERSE #1:
No good comes from crying ’bout
what used to be
or what you’ve lost.
There’s no point in being mad
’bout what was done
or said
or the cost.
It’s time you let yesterday slip away.
It’s hard, but focus on…
CHORUS:
What’s now, what’s next.
Sure, take a little while to catch your breath.
Then move on, head held high,
turn away from this hurt. Tell it goodbye.
But no tears,
no regrets.
Just believe in what’s now
and what’s next.
VERSE #2:
Friends still gather ’round
with open arms
and they can soften the blow.
You’ve still got a heart that loves,
and a clever mind.
Your blessings overflow.
Don’t let the past cast a spell on you.
Call on the magic of…
CHORUS:
What’s now, what’s next.
Sure, take a little while to catch your breath.
Then move on, head held high,
turn away from this hurt. Tell it goodbye.
But no tears,
no regrets.
Just believe in what’s now
and what’s next.
BRIDGE:
Where do you want to be a year from today?
Well, then, set your sights on that shore
and sail away,
on waves of…
CHORUS.
What’s now, what’s next.
Sure, take a little while to catch your breath.
Then move on, head held high,
turn away from this hurt. Tell it goodbye.
But no tears,
no regrets.
Just believe in what’s now
and what’s next.
But no tears,
no regrets,
just believe in what’s now
and what’s next.
