Josh Ritter - I Still Love You (Now And Then) Lyrics






They all say that you're doing well
Living down in Arkansas
You got a family now they tell
The old days never call to ya

Me I'm working for the man
But he ain't got the best of me
I have friends and I have plans
And someone's got the rest of me

But I still love you now and then
I love you now and then when I think of ya
I still love you now and then
I love you now and then
I still love you now and then when I think of ya

Said a broken heart don't leave a scar
I keep it to myself and I
I keep my head up though it's hard
All these things take a little time

'Cause I still love you now and then
I love you now and then when I think of ya
I still love you now and then
I love you now and then
And I still love you now and then when I think of ya

Never mind all that they say
How are you these days
I laugh and tell them that I'm doing fine
It's gonna take time
It's gonna take more than time

I wish for you the very best
You always were the best of us
There was you and then the rest
And that's the girl I'm thinking of

'Cause I still love you now and then
I love you now and then when I think of ya
I still love you now and then
I love you now and then
And I still love you now and then when I think of ya

I still love you now and then
When her fingers brush my skin
When the night falls over all
Of everything that's been
And everything we were
And cannot be again
I still love you now and then when I think of ya
I think of ya

I think of ya

  1. B.... '....

    👍👍👍👍 just wanted to like again. Great song.

  2. T.... K....

    It's like going back to the 1970s with Lobo (Roland Kent LaVoie).

  3. D.... G....

    one of those quiet, gentle gut-punches.

  4. S.... E....

    The familiarity with a feeling - that’s what allows someone to sing it so simple & true. That’s what allows it to dive straight into your heart when you hear it, too.

  5. S.... ....

    Beautiful.

  6. J.... R....

    Can really hear Jason Isbell's influence on this track. Two of my favorite songwriters collaborating and it sounds great. Hope they continue to find ways to work together.

  7. A.... G....

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwFPq8EItko&list=RDFH9MhovIY9g&index=4 for the song that comes before this in context (New Lover Now)

  8. L.... S....

    Healing song for the broken heart in all of us

  9. C.... M....

    Interesting time signatures. Roughly 7/4 for the intro/verses, 4/4 for the chorus and interludes. Nice feel without being forced.

  10. D.... R....

    Nice music easy listening , we need you josh Ritter I will play you music at my granddaughters graduation dinner . We love you now !

  11. G.... S....

    Love this song a lot ! An amazing artist to discover, i just did !

  12. M.... P....

    A song I will repeat until my broken heart is healed

  13. D.... N....

    Can't understand how anyone could have given this a thumbs down, except by accident?

  14. J.... J....

    Great song....I love it!

  15. w.... ....

    heard this the other day and I am happier for that

  16. x.... ....

    Classic Josh Ritter

  17. c.... b....

    Thank you CBC Q for introducing me to this wonderful artist!

  18. L.... ....

    Songwriting genius!

  19. S.... T....

    Sounds like Gregory Alan Isakov’s The Stable Song a bit

  20. E.... S....

    someone said once:
    "only fools wish the best to their ex-lovers"
    But Josh, I trust you more💙

  21. J.... v....

    goed bezig.

  22. O.... B....

    he's done it again, beautiful song :)

  23. R.... G....

    It's a hit!

  24. M.... C....

    A little like Bob Dylan. Finally again, a man that sounds like a man! So tired of all these high singer chicky soy boys, the shitty autotune singers, the constantly screaming singer guys, or the cookie monster growling weirdos. This sounds like an actual real human singing, a refreshing change!

    M.... C....

    @S.L. McQueen Oh and a lot of historical progressive icons would be excommunicated by that 'church' if their narratives weren't taught in a revisionist fashion. Ghandi comes to mind foremost. He totally believed in the Indian caste system...a natural hierarchy if you will.

    M.... C....

    @D. Gat that's an interesting factoid but I can't find anything to confirm that at all bud. All I can find is a Telegraph article that says he was pro obama.

    M.... C....

    @D. Gat leftists don't claim ghandi he was a piece of shit

    M.... C....

    @S.L. McQueen He's been excommunicated? I mean they recently used to?

  25. L.... M....

    Congratulations. Sounds great. As always...

  26. s.... ....

    I don't think anyone would ever want to pick their "breakup song", but this might be mine.

  27. D.... M....

    Oh, i am so happy for i saw this 💙

  28. M.... R....

    There's no "now and then" when it comes to my love of Josh and his music.

  29. �.... �....

    Oh, how it's wonderful

  30. L.... B....

    Magnificent songwriting! Great band!

  31. B.... B....

    Sweet, thank you!
