No Time For Waiting Lyrics

It's enough to make you stay
It's enough to make you go away
But you don't understand how I'm feeling
You don't understand, no, no

It's enough to make you sick
It's enough to make you want to quit
But you don't understand how I'm feeling
You don't understand my mind

It's sad when you can't cry
It all comes down to time
Keeps flying by
Time keeps telling me

There's no time for waiting
For the river to wash into the sea
And when I reach some understanding
I'm gonna let it wash all over, wash all over me

It's too much to make you say
That you always want it to be this way
But you don't understand this feeling
So why do I even try?

It's sad when you can't try
It all comes down to time
Keeps killing time
Time keeps healing

I've no time for waiting
For the river to wash into the sea
And when I reach some understanding
I'm gonna let it wash all over, wash all over me

But I know one day you'll see
The person I wanted to be
And there's no time for waiting
There's no time for waiting

Can't find the time
Can't find the time

There's no time
There's no time
There's no time

Can't find the time

There's no time
There's no time
There's no time

Cover art for No Time For Waiting lyrics by Soul Asylum

I'd say this is one of the few songs about unrequited love that's also cheerful and optimistic. It's a brilliant song, no doubt, and in my opinion the centerpiece of Candy From a Stranger.
