It’s about letting go of wants and desires, and appreciating the little things. It reminds me (Scott) that life is precious.
[Verse 1]
I glued my happiness
To another outcome I can’t predict
Keep on thinking life would be perfect if
If I had that something I still can’t get
[Pre-Chorus]
And I don’t know where I am tonight
Keep thinking ‘bout where I want to go
And I wish that I could stop sometimes
And watch the lights over the freeway
Don’t know what I’m running from
Waiting for a time that never comes
When it’s never gonna be enough?
That's it, I’m done
[Chorus]
I don’t want to wait, wait no more
That’s not what these days
Days are for
I don’t wanna wake up one day
And realize I missed out on right now, right now
I’m not gonna wait, wait
Wait no more
[Verse 2]
One day I’ll fly a plane
I’ll be looking down on the little things
Ah but right now they still seem so big
Isn’t this longing the strangest thing?
[Pre-Chorus]
And I don’t know where I am tonight
Keep thinking ‘bout where I want to go
And I wish that I could stop sometimes
And watch the lights over the freeway
Don’t know what I’m running from
Waiting for a time that never comes
When it’s never gonna be enough?
That's it, I’m done
[Chorus]
I don’t want to wait, wait no more
That’s not what these days
Days are for
I don’t wanna wake up one day
And realize I missed out on right now, right now, no
I’m not gonna wait, wait
Wait no more
[Outro]
Don’t know what I am tonight
Waiting for a time that never comes
When it's never gonna be enough
That's it, I’m done
