This is now…

I was listening to Leonard Cohen a lot this winter, and these lyrics sort of came out from there...don't know what they really mean, i was more interested in trying to see if I could mimic Leonard's style, which of course I can't, but this was…
This songs reminds me that this is the moment i have. No longer looking for the dawn for the dawn is here.
