| | Just For Now Lyrics Artist(Band):Imogen Heap
It's that time of year, Leave all our hopelessnesses aside (if just for a little while) Tears stop right here, I know we've all had a bumpy ride (I’m secretly on your side) How did you know? It's what I always wanted, You can never have too many of these Will ya quit kicking me under the table? I'm trying, will somebody make her shut up about it? Can we settle down please? It's that time of year, Leave all our hopelessnesses aside (if just for a little while) Tears stop right here, I know we've all had a bumpy ride (I’m secretly on your side) Lie down Deep breaths Count to ten Nod your head (sniff sniff) I think something is burning, Now you've ruined the whole thing Muffle the smoke alarm Whoever put on this music Had better quick, sharp, remove it Pour me another Oh, don't wag your finger at me It's that time of year, Leave all our hopelessnesses aside (if just for a little while) Tears stop right here, I know we've all had a bumpy ride (I’m secretly on your side) Will ya get me outta her, Get me outta here, Get me outta here (repeats til end) Just for now Just for now.

Review about Just For Now My all time favorite | Reviewer: Sara Gratton | 7/15/09 Every time that I hear this song, I have to resist the urge to cry. It's very sad, and reminds me too much of my family. (Which has finally crumbled within the past several months, and everyone has gone their seperate ways...) Holiday gatherings are VERY rough for my family. There's always a lot of fighting, bickering, complaining, nobody is happy - yet we all try to paste on a smile for the day and pretend like we're one happy family. My brother usually drugs himself to make it through the tough holiday gatherings (if he's not in jail that year, anyway), my sister starts the fights, my mother eggs the fighting on - yet insists we all behave...all the while, I find myself just wishing that I wasn't there, but feeling obligated to be there for the family's sake. Imogen conveys quite a lot - saying very little. That's not an easy task, but she makes it look as if it is. Merry Christmas | Reviewer: Alice | 6/6/09 It's christmas time so lets put aside all of our troubles i know it's been a tough year. She gets a present that she has gotten before. A young family member is kicking her under the table. She tells him to stop and he says he didn't know he was kicking her and for her to just shut up. Her mom is telling them to calm down and stop fighting. She is trying to calm down by breathing deeply, biting her tounge, ect. when she smells something burning. It was the Christmas dinner. A family member was trying to stop the smoke alarms from going off. Someof the family starts to sing cheesy christmas carols. She pours some alchohol to numb out the music. Her mom is giving her disaproving looks but she doesn't care. She just wants to ge out of there but just for now she'll have to stay me and this song have a love/hate relationship | Reviewer: Anonymous | 2/18/09 So I have been doing a winterguard routine to this song this year. So trust me I have heard this song about a million times. I love it. Its about the holidays and a family who have been going through a tough time, but if "just for now" on this one day that they are all supposed to be happy they could set it all aside. Sadly, it does not work that way she gets gifts that she obviously got a million times before, they burn the turkey perhaps, and she ends up poring herself another, also the unforgetable ending line "get me outta here". the meaning | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/19/08 It is about Christmas with family (as is evident by the lines about receiving gifts). A family member has died. Everyone has had a hard time dealing with it ("bumpy ride"), but "tears stop right here" (for this Christmas gathering). A family member (perhaps a grown sibling) is "kicking [her] under the table" to "make her shut up about it" so she doesn't get herself and other upset about it--maybe the mother of grown children is going on about her late husband. The singer (and probably others too) doesn't like the whole situation and wants "outta here" physically, but drinks to escape it emotionally ("pour me another"), a method of coping which is not approved by some family member ("oh, don't wag your finger at me"). Plain and simple. Something Pevensie-ish | Reviewer: Anonymous | 5/22/08 As I read the lyrics and listened to the song after seeing Prince Caspian in a local theater, I couldn't help remembering a certain scene in the early parts of the movie: the one when the four Pevensie kids ran along a shore and splashed water to each other. It was the one scene that was both warm and made me teary... the feeling of being together and then torn apart. Alternative Christmas #1 | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/30/07 This should be released in a protest to the Christmas no1 (x factor as usual now) It sums up all the bad things that unfortunately Christmas can bring up especially in family gatherings which should be the opposite of what the song shows up. Its a wicked interpretation. Pour me another, oh don't wag your finger at me (I need to get steamin just to get through this god awful occassion ha ha) Gifts | Reviewer: Anonymous | 10/5/07 i love the irony of xmas she highlights, when you open a gift in front of the person who's given it and it's something rubbish like socks or sumthn, n to be polite u say 'It's what I always wanted, You can never have too many of these' haha golden song- same thought | Reviewer: Laura | 9/10/07 *g* when i listen more carefully to that song and when i finally read the lyrics i also thought it was about a christmas or a thanksgiving get together. but she still did a great job with this song! Just for now... | Reviewer: Lola | 8/24/07 This song is definitely about a fmily gathering - probably Christmas or a birthday (because of the gift reference), but I think it refers to how difficult emotionally it is to get together with your entire family, with all the history and issues that make up decades of family life, struggle and strife, and how some people just cannot handle these get togethers (Get me outta here.....) Christmas? | Reviewer: Sereth | 8/18/07 I really think this song is about a christmas get together "It's that time of year Leave all our hopelessnesses aside" - Money issues? "If just for a little while" -Christmas day "Tears stop right here, I know we've all had a bumpy ride" - buying christmas gifts Review By Pages: 1 2 3 Review the song Just For Now The area is only for review, if you want to submit the lyrics or the corrections of the lyrics, please click the link at the end of the lyrics.
