Carl Eaton - Life Won't Wait Lyrics

There you go running out the door
Then you push the pedal firmly to the floor
Is this how you thought it would be
Staring blankly at computer screens
As you dream of how your life could've been
How your heart aches to be free

We shouldn't have to live for the weekend
We shouldn't have to live by the clock
Cause life won't wait for us

You thought you were gonna be someone
Now you're left wondering where it all went wrong
This was not meant to be your fate
There must be more to life than this
Is there time to make up for the years you've missed
Does it have to be too late

We shouldn't have to live for the weekend
We shouldn't have to live by the clock
Cause life won't wait for us

Why so long for you to wake up from your sleep
Better run, can't make it when you're six foot deep

Paralysed by time and tide
Red turns green
Panic overruns your mind
Better not waste another year

We shouldn't have to live for the weekend
We shouldn't have to live by the clock
Cause life won't wait for us"
