Not Made for Waiting Lyrics by Fireflake

Momentum

0

[Intro / Transition 1]
Baby you’re my kryptonite –
Eyes all green and shining bright
To you I’m just another passerby –
I’m like Superman, but I fly too high

Your thirty’s the new twenty –
Your hipster style is trendy
The way you put your hair up –
Not made up with make up

[Verse 1]
You have those eyes where one look is enough for me –
Under your spell I am, as much as I could be
When you’re around I’m like the jester to a king –
Like the fool inside of me’s all of a sudden free to sing

You like your walks long, preferably on beaches –
You’ve got a nickname, your girls call you: Peaches
So I guess not all is sane under one of your bandanas
But then I guess that underneath we’re all a bit bananas

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess we’re all a bit shy
So ladies come and get that guy
He might not be a prince
But better him than no one since:

[Chorus 1]
We’re not really made just for waiting
We don’t have the time that it might take
So if you really want to get lucky
Baby, there’s more than enough fish in this lake

Our clocks are ticking all the time –
We don’t know whats left on yours or mine
All I know is once the hands will stop
All dreams that could have been will pop –
Live before you’re end of the line

[Transition 2]
Oh baby you’re fantastic –
Your body’s gymnastic
You’re so enthusiastic –
Others pass quick, like last week

They say you are a keeper –
Mary Jane I am your Peter
But every time I want to greet ‘ya
It seems like silence would be cheaper

[Verse 2]
You’re walking past me, but this time you look at me –
A smile in your eyes that before I didn’t see
Like you expected me to say something to you
And all I manage somehow is to ask you how you do

You turn back to me and I half expect to wake up –
You tell me you’re good now, my head goes: „boom headshot!“
I’ve waited way too long, you tell me as we chat
And I tell you that I never thought you’d ever greet me back

[Pre-Chorus]
I guess we’re all a bit shy
So ladies come and get that guy
He might not be a prince
But better him than no one since:

[Chorus 2]
We’re not really made just for waiting
We don’t have the time that it might take
So if you really want to get lucky
Baby, there’s more than enough fish in this lake

Our clocks are ticking all the time –
We don’t know whats left on yours or mine
All I know is once the hands will stop
All dreams that could have been will pop –
Live before you’re end of the line

We’re not really made just for waiting
We don’t have the time that it might take
So if you really want to get lucky
Baby, there’s more than enough fish in this lake

Our clocks are ticking all the time –
We don’t know whats left on yours or mine
All I know is once the hands will stop
All dreams that could have been will pop –
Live before you’re end of the line

[Outro]
The time we have is a little bit too short
Don’t waste it like you have so much left to spend

The time we have is a little bit too short
Don’t waste it like you have so much left to spend

The time we have is a little bit too short
Don’t waste it like you have so much left to spend
