Now and Forever is the seventh studio album by Australian soft rock band Air Supply, released in 1982. It was the band's last platinum album in America, and their last album to continue the band's successful popularity, peaking at #25 on US charts. The album contains the hit "Even the Nights Are Better" (#5), along with the minor hits "Young Love" (#38) and "Two Less Lonely People in the World" (#38).

"Even the Nights Are Better" is the title of a popular song from 1982 (see 1982 in music) by the Australian soft rock group Air Supply. "Even the Nights Are Better" was included on Air Supply's 1982 album Now and Forever. The song has also been covered by Anne Murray.

Released as a single in mid-1982, "Even the Nights Are Better" first charted in the United States on the Billboard adult contemporary chart, where it spent four weeks at No. 1 in July and August. This was Air Supply's third song to reach the summit on this chart. It also reached No. 1 on the Canadian AC chart. In September 1982, the song reached its peak position of No. 5 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming the group's seventh consecutive top five hit on the US pop chart. In the United Kingdom, where the group did not enjoy the same amount of success as they did in Australia and the US, the song reached No. 44 on the UK Singles Chart.

I, I was the lonely one

Wondering what went wrong, why love had gone

And left me lonely

I, I was so confused, feeling like I'd just been used

Then you came to me and my loneliness left me

I used to think I was tied to a heartache

That was the heartbreak, but now that I've found you

Even the nights are better

Now that we're here together

Even the nights are better

Since I found you, oh

Even the days are brighter

When someone you love's beside ya

Even the nights are better

Since I found you

You, you knew just what to do

'Cause you had been lonely too

And you showed me how

To ease the pain and

You did more than mend a broken heart

'Cause now you've made a fire start

And I, I can see that you feel the same way

I never dreamed there'd be someone to hold me

Until you told me and now that I've found you

Even the nights are better

Now that we're here together

Even the nights are better

Since I found you, oh

Even the days are brighter

When someone you love's beside ya

Even the nights are better

Since I found you

I never dreamed there'd be someone to hold me

Until you told me and now that I've found you

Even the nights are better

Now that we're here together

Even the nights are better

Since I found you, oh

Even the days are brighter

When someone you love's beside ya

Even the nights are better

Since I found you.
