[Verse 1]
Boss man’s blowing up my phone again
Bills stacked tall on the kitchen counter edge
Clock keeps talking like it owns my life
But tonight I’m cutting that wire loose

Been saying “next summer” since last year
Saving sunsets for a better time
But the years move fast when you blink too long
And I’m done watching mine roll by

[Pre-Chorus]
So if the tide’s rolling in
Then I’m rolling with it

[Chorus]
I don’t wanna wait another Friday night
To feel alive underneath these lights
Cold drink sweating in a beach chair glow
Salt in the air and nowhere to go
Everybody says “one day soon”
But someday came and left too soon
So turn that song up, let the worries fade
I’m done waiting on a good time, babe

[Verse 2]
Flip flops kicking by the bonfire sparks
Barefoot dancing in a parking lot bar
Got a cheap guitar playing half in tune
And somehow everything feels right

Girl laughing with the wind in her hair
Moon hanging low like it wants to stay
No reservation, no perfect plan
Just good people and a long escape

[Pre-Chorus]
Yeah the world can spin tomorrow
Tonight we borrow forever

[Bridge]
No more counting down
No more “maybe later”
Life’s too short to save
All the good for paper
If heaven’s got a soundtrack
I swear it sounds like this
Waves crashing in the dark
And your sunburn kiss

[Final Chorus]
I don’t wanna wait another sunset gone
Wishing I’d been where my heart belonged
Palm trees swaying like they know my name
Whole world melting in a summer haze
Everybody says “slow it down”
So tonight we’re slowing right now
Raise ‘em high till the sunrise breaks
We’re done waiting on a good time, babe

[Outro]
Nah, we ain’t waiting anymore
The tide’s already at the door
Come on in… the night’s still young.
