[P.T. Barnum:] I saw the sun begin to dim And felt that winter wind Blow cold A man learns who is there for him When the glitter fades and the walls won’t hold ‘Cause from that rubble what remains Can only be what’s true If all was lost There’s more I gained ‘Cause it led me back to you
From now on These eyes will not be blinded by the lights From now on What’s waited ’til tomorrow starts tonight Tonight Let this promise in me start Like an anthem in my heart From now on From now on
I drank champagne with kings and queens The politicians praised my name But those were someone else’s dreams The pitfalls of the man I became For years and years I chased their cheers A crazy speed of always needing more But when I stop And see you here I remember who all this was for
And from now on These eyes will not be blinded by the lights From now on What’s waited ’til tomorrow starts tonight It starts tonight And let this promise in me start Like an anthem in my heart From now on From now on From now on

Full lyrics of “From Now On” by Hugh Jackman:
[P.T. Barnum:]
I saw the sun begin to dim
And felt that winter wind
Blow cold
A man learns who is there for him
When the glitter fades and the walls won’t hold
‘Cause from that rubble what remains
Can only be what’s true
If all was lost
There’s more I gained
‘Cause it led me back to you
From now on
These eyes will not be blinded by the lights
From now on
What’s waited ’til tomorrow starts tonight
Tonight
Let this promise in me start
Like an anthem in my heart
From now on
From now on
I drank champagne with kings and queens
The politicians praised my name
But those were someone else’s dreams
The pitfalls of the man I became
For years and years
I chased their cheers
A crazy speed of always needing more
But when I stop
And see you here
I remember who all this was for
And from now on
These eyes will not be blinded by the lights
From now on
What’s waited ’til tomorrow starts tonight
It starts tonight
And let this promise in me start
Like an anthem in my heart
From now on
From now on
From now on
[Oddities:]
And we will come back home
And we will come back home
Home again!
And we will come back home
And we will come back home
Home again!
And we will come back home
And we will come back home
Home again!

From now on!
[Oddities:]
And we will come back home
And we will come back home
Home again!
And we will come back home
From now on!
And we will come back home
From now on!
Home again!
And we will come back home
From now on!
And we will come back home
From now on!
[P.T. Barnum:]
Yes!
[Oddities:]
Home again!
And we will come back home
From now on!
And we will come back home
From now on!
Home again!
[Oddities:]
From now on
[P.T. Barnum:]
These eyes will not be blinded by the lights
[Oddities:]
From now on

What’s waited ’til tomorrow starts tonight
It starts tonight
Let this promise in me start
Like an anthem in my heart
[Oddities:]
From now on
[P.T. Barnum:]

From now on
