For Now

[Verse 1] I held the cup Between my hands Across the aisle I looked again “Is that really apple juice?” I let it land “I’d imagined scotch Or champagne in your hand” [Pre-Chorus] “Someone like you?” He echoed back I doubled down No turning track “Or rum. Or aguardiente” All Colombians drink “I’m aware,” he said “I never will” [Chorus] For now For now I’m stepping down In Rotterdam For now Wedding in Potsdam That’s my plan For now [Verse 2] He asked if I fell For my own stereotype Offering me beer Just minutes ago I smiled and said I miss German beer Then let me guess You’re vegan too, right? He shook his head “That’s for the guests” Then asked about me Any rules or requests? I mentioned the bread American kind turns to paste [Pre-Chorus] He thought for a beat Then looked up straight “There’s chicken on the next leg I could verify the bread” I shook my head lightly “I’m stepping down instead” [Chorus] For now For now I’m stepping down In Rotterdam For now Wedding in Potsdam That’s my plan For now [Bridge] He said, “Come to Tallinn” Like it was plain Not a promise Just an open train A very structured Kind of risk I let it sit there Didn’t say yes [Final Chorus] For now For now I’m stepping down In Rotterdam For now Wedding in Potsdam That’s my plan For now But Tallinn wasn’t even On my list Now it is For now For now [Outro] “For now,” he said I kept the line “For now,” I said And let it shine
