Don't Wait
Adie Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Lazy day
Just room enough for me to think and pray about each new day
Draw me from my drowning apathetic state

Stormy day
Just watch the rain melt all my doubt away
Fire away the heated arrows to my lukewarm state
Don't wait
Don't wish away
Today is going to be the day He made
Don't waste
One day is all that we've got to give and take

Bend and break my mind and heart to feel the urgent need
To take all I see and pour my life into eternity
And take it all today and give everything
And take it all today




Lazy day
You're in everything that comes my way
