Don't Wait

by Mel Parsons Ron Sexsmith

on Drylands (2015)

Don't wait your whole life hopin' things might change
Don't wait your whole life lookin' for someone to blame
Gotta take a risk now, honey, spread your wings wide
Do what you were born for, do what makes you smile

'Cause it's too short to waste your time
Do things you don't want to do
Yeah, it's too short to waste your time
Don't waste your time on blue
Don't waste your time on blue

Get across the ocean fast as you can
Get your eyes wide open and make a plan
It's all there waiting, you gotta know where to look
It's all for the taking, open your heart and close the book

'Cause it's too short to waste your time
Do things you don't want to do
Yeah, it's too short to waste your time
Don't waste your time on blue
Don't waste your time on blue

Be sure he treats you right, honey, make sure he's good of heart
You don't need the damage, it'll only tear you apart
Don't wait your whole life hopin' things might change
Don't wait your whole life lookin' for someone to blame

'Cause it's too short to waste your time
Do things you don't want to do
Yeah, it's too short to waste your time
Don't waste your time on blue
Don't waste your time on blue
