Westlife - What About Now Lyrics
Shadows fill an empty heart
As love is fading,
From all the things that we are
But are not saying
Can we see beyond the scars
And make it to the dawn?
Change the colors of the sky
And open up to
The ways you made me feel alive,
The ways I loved you
For all the things that never died,
To make it through the night,
Love will find you
What about now?
What about today?
What if you’re making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love never went away?

What if it’s lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it’s too late,
What about now?
The sun is breaking in your eyes
To start a new day
This broken heart can still survive
With a touch of your grace
Shadows fade into the light
I am by your side,
Where love will find you
What about now?
What about today?
What if you’re making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love had never went away?
What if it’s lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it’s too late,
What about now?
Now that we’re here,
Now that we’ve come this far,
Just hold on
There is nothing to fear,
For I am right beside you.
For all my life,
I am yours.
What about now?
What about today?
What if you’re making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love had never went away?
What if it’s lost behind words we could never find?
What about now?
What about today?
What if you’re making me all that I was meant to be?
What if our love had never went away?
What if it’s lost behind words we could never find?
Baby, before it’s too late,
Baby, before it’s too late,
Baby, before it’s too late,
What about now?

Is it just me or is anyone else fed-up to the back teeth of Westlife making a living from other music artists records!!!
This song was release by Daughtry not too long ago & now Westlife are releasing their version of it, what a flamin cheek!!!
When are they actually going to wrie their own records & stop making money of others backs!!!!

actually westlifes version is brilliant and so what if they are copying daughtry lots of people are copying use somebody by kings of leon and nobody cares leave westlife alone they are fantastic singers and im sure lots of people still like them

Im Sorry But Seriousy Westlife Need To Get A Life
Past Their Time And Cant Make Money Without Using Another Musicians Songs
TBH They have ruined the song which is orignally Daughtry’s and Their Version sucks.
Yh i will admit they are good singers but they do need to get off their own lazy arses and make their own music

The song is great and it’s truth they do lots of covers but they don’t have to prove anything, their first 3 records had more than 15 tracks, all good, 10 records more than n’sync and bsb, they still alive and people like them and they have guiness records for more singles on 1st place on a role… course we would like better songs written by them.. but what if they do covers? as long as they do it right

I think their version is better. Daughtry’s version a li’l bit rock in it, but they have more pop rock version. Make it more easy listening

Oh for goodness sake! true Westlife fans already know that the group write a lot of their own material. Yes they do covers, but so do many other singers/groups. How come only Westlife get slated for it? I think this version is the better mainly because the lads put more feeling into the words and I’m loving their new rock look as well. When it comes down to it they are an extremely succesful group, and have been for 11yrs now. Must be doing something right mustn’t they? For all you detractors out there, I suggest you go see one of their shows. Perhaps then you’ll realise then they have more than looks and voices going for them, and not a mime in sight!

To those who hate westlife for covering so many songs..you better shut up!!!! A lot of their covers were chosen by simon cowell for them to sing. They are not the one who are choosing the songs..and who cares if they do a lot of covers???? And anyone can sing a song if they are given the right…are you people the writers of the song????!!!!! Simon will not instruct westlife to sing covers if they will just ruin it..everyone knows how simon can… criticise…after 11 years,,and over 45 million records sold worldwide, doing covers is not really a big deal!!! If you don’t like their version, then don’t bother!!!! I’m a westlife fan since 1991999 and I know how it feels for other wl fans …..just sharing my love for them

I am a westlife fan, and this song is as good as the original’s and tbh not much difference between the two. Why do people slate Westlife for doing covers. Surely, you should be slating the original artists for allowing it to happen. As it is solely their decision, if they say no, then Westlife wouldn’t be able to cover it, so the original artists are saying yes, to make some easy money, and not have to do anything

so what if its a copy..its a nice version so shut up haters
i love westlife so much
November 12th, 2009 at 12:34 pm
i agree with all the other comments by westlife fans … maybe you doubters should see westlife sing live sometime then im sure you will come away with a lasting experience AND that they actually sound just as great live with no special effects as they do on a cd . ive been to so many concerts ive lost count and i can honestly say every concert was great .. westlife fans all know that they are the best and nothing anyone can say will ever change a true westlife fans mind ….AND WHO CARES HOW MANY COVERS THEY DO AS LONG AS THEY SING FOR US ..long may they rule the charts
November 13th, 2009 at 2:16 pm
