[Verse 1] You been staring at the porch screen Like life gon' knock and ask your name Got that good heart in your chest, babe But it keeps slipping through the frame You keep saying "maybe Monday" Like Monday knows your plans But the day don't come and save you You gotta take it in your hands [Pre-Chorus] If the road is open Why you standing at the gate? If your feet still work, then Baby, don't you make 'em wait [Chorus] Stop waiting to live your life Stop waiting to live your life Take that first step, feel that wind This is the only one you get to spend Stop waiting to live your life Stop waiting to live your life (hey, hey) The door is open now (go on) Don't let it close you out [Verse 2] I seen dreams in a kitchen Going cold beside the stove Bills on the table, baby And a restless heart that knows You don't need a perfect moment You don't need a sign in the sky If you want to feel the morning You gotta meet it eye to eye [Pre-Chorus] If the road is open Why you standing at the gate? If your feet still work, then Baby, don't you make 'em wait [Chorus] Stop waiting to live your life Stop waiting to live your life Take that first step, feel that wind This is the only one you get to spend Stop waiting to live your life Stop waiting to live your life (hey, hey) The door is open now (go on) Don't let it close you out [Bridge] One day turns to nothing If you fold it up in fear All that breath inside your body Is a promise you are here So tell the clock to keep on talking Let it count, let it shout You were born to move the chain link Not to stand and stare it out [Chorus] Stop waiting to live your life Stop waiting to live your life Take that first step, feel that wind This is the only one you get to spend Stop waiting to live your life Stop waiting to live your life (yeah, yeah) The door is open now (go on) Don't let it close you out
