"If not now..." by Tracy Chapman does the same for me:
If Not Now...
If not now then when If not today then Why make your promises A love declared for days to come Is as good as none
You can wait ’til morning comes You can wait for the new day You can wait and lose this heart You can wait and soon be sorry
Now love’s the only thing that’s free We must take it where it’s found Pretty soon it may be costly
If not now what then We all must live our lives Always feeling Always thinking The moment has arrived

Oh, that's a great song, too. My freshman year was spent letting LP's play over and over throughout the night on my record player as I fell to sleep. Tracy Chapman's 1st was one of the records we listened to during those nights.

I love that basement. When we grow up we should by that house so we can fly to Ohio and meditate and do our creative work in the basement.

If Not Now...
If not now then when
If not today then
Why make your promises
A love declared for days to come
Is as good as none
You can wait ’til morning comes
You can wait for the new day
You can wait and lose this heart
You can wait and soon be sorry
Now love’s the only thing that’s free
We must take it where it’s found
Pretty soon it may be costly
If not now what then
We all must live our lives
Always feeling
Always thinking
The moment has arrived
