Complimentary "Just For Now" Ringtone

(Just for now) (x6)

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)

Bite your tongue
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 (repeats)

Review about Just For Now

the meaning | Reviewer: Anonymous | 7/19/2008

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 | 5/22/2008

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 | 10/30/2007

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 | 10/5/2007

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 | 9/10/2007

*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 | 8/24/2007

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 | 8/18/2007

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

xmas | Reviewer: Wes | 7/31/2007

@ Pfoofination: yeah I was thinking the same thing about this song... it's about opening presents (just what I wanted, you can never have enough of these) and the xmas dinner burning and stuff... it's awesome, she just wrote down some thoughts and phrases and fitted them into the perfect song everrr... with her sweet as candy voice... it's amazing, and shows a huge talent!

Reminds me of.... | Reviewer: Poket | 7/17/2007

My boyfriend, Jeremy...he's in Arkansa, but only for a week, I miss him so much I want to cry when I hear this song! ...it reminds me of him because Ive gone through some stuff in life and Im so glad it all happend and that the "bumpy ride" is a result of me meeting him...I wouldnt trade one thing thats happend for the world.

i love it | Reviewer: anonymous | 7/12/2007
