(Stop) Waiting for the days to end
(Start) Living while you can
(Stop) Dreaming of what might have been
(Start) Living now
It's another lazy afternoon
TV or cable, music available
Where's a pen to write
Why you don't know what to do
(Stop) Waiting for the days to end
(Start) Living while you can
(Stop) Dreaming of what might have been
(Start) Living now
The clock says time is on your side
The bell rings five, you come alive
A friendly neighbour caught you smiling
Why you don't know what to do
(Stop) Waiting for the days to end
(Start) Living while you can
(Stop) Dreaming of what might have been
(Start) Living now
Stop, start, stop, start
Stop
Start
Stop
Start
Waiting for the days to end
(Stop) Waiting for the days to end
(Start) Living while you can
(Stop) Dreaming of what might have been
(Start) Living now
Waiting for the days to end
