To Wait for Love (Is to Waste Your Life Away) Lyrics

Every day without love is a day of sorrow
Don't wait until tomorrow
To wait for love is just to waste your life away

Dreams come true, but if you get too far behind them
Someone else will find them
To wait for love is just to waste your life away

So press your lips against my lips
And thrill me to the warmth of your caress
The time for love is late, so please don't wait
Together we can find happiness

I know that every day without love
Is a day of sadness
Let me bring you gladness
To wait for love is just to waste your life away
Hear what I say
Tomorrow true love may fly away

Fall in love today
Don't waste your life away
Fall in love today

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
