Waste the Day
Embracing Life's Perfect Moments with Heather Nova's 'Waste the Day'
Lyrics
The streets are all busy
The streets are bustling with activity.
And we're still in bed
Despite the active streets, we are still in bed.
We should be up working
We should be up and working.
But we're lying here instead
Instead, we are choosing to remain lying here.
I look outside, the weather's fine
Observing that the weather outside is good,
For playing music, and drinking wine
It's suitable for enjoying music and wine.
I could waste the day with you
I am willing to spend the day idly with you.
I could slip away
I can lose track of time, escaping with you.
Into another dimension
Entering a different state or reality.
What a perfect way, to spend the day, with you
It's a perfect way to enjoy the day together.
Let's walk to the cafe
Let's take a stroll to the café.
And sit in the sun
Sit outside in the sunlight.
And read all the papers
Read through newspapers.
And watch everyone
Observe and watch people passing by.
Cause life is short, and life is sweet
Life is brief and enjoyable.
And sometimes you've just got to set yourself free
Sometimes you need to liberate yourself.
I could waste the day with you
I am open to spending the day leisurely with you.
I could slip away
I can escape from the usual routine with you.
Into another dimension
Entering another state or experience.
What a perfect way, to spend the day, with you
It's an ideal way to enjoy the day together.
I could waste the day with you
I'm willing to spend the day idly with you.
I could slip away
I can lose track of time, escaping with you.
Into another dimension
Entering a different state or reality.
What a perfect way, to spend the day
It's a perfect way to enjoy the day.
Yeah what a perfect way, to spend the day, with you
Yes, it's an ideal way to spend the day together.
