lyrics

I DON'T WANNA WASTE IT
(Written by Rachel Williams & Paul Sikes)

There's a sunrise crawlin' on my face
I feel more hope than I did yesterday
I put both feet on the floor
I kinda smile, but I don't know what for
I can't quite place it
But I don't wanna waste it

Been anchored to my yesterdays
But I'm unhooking myself from that place
So the next time heartache comes around
I won't let it bury me in that cold ground
I'll embrace it
I don't wanna waste it

Chorus:
There's only so much time
And I hate to say that I
Let too much fall through the cracks
But this is now and that was then
And it's a good day to begin
Making up for what I can't get back

'Cause it sure knows how to disappear
My grandma turns 86 this year
So I will cling to her words like a child
And every chance I get to hold her hand in mine
I'm gonna take it
I don't wanna waste it

Chorus

'Cause I've got this gift, I've got this plan
This ol' heart and these two hands
Yeah life may have it's twists and turns
But I'm grateful for the big picture
'Cause God gave it
I don't wanna waste it

I'm not gonna waste it
