everything is quiet you're outside the sound
you've buried her talent in the ground
tired of always standing still and waiting around
you feels so lost and wants to be found

everything is lonely you're outside the song
she waits and another year is gone
yet another sun goes down but it's still wrong
you wants to make it right and you wait too long

yeah - don't wait too long, don't wait too long

can you see the fire it burns behind the skies
it's not enough to exist or just survive
can you see the fire inside the children's eyes
they're waiting for you to come alive

everyone is waking up but the blinds are drawn
you can't recall what you're running from
open up the shutters c'mon embrace the dawn
the race is on so don't wait too long

don't wait too long, don't wait too long
to live, to love, to find the song to be part of
forgive, move on
don't wait too long, don't wait too long
listen and dance and hold the hands of innocence
trust you belong
don't wait too long, don't wait too long
