My Soul Can’t Wait Suzan Stroud
Verse 1
I organize and rearrange
Thinking I can make this crazy world change
I put off soul-searching ‘cause I can’t stop working
To get ahead, not just get by
I tell myself
Chorus
My soul can wait
I’ll just hold on
My soul can wait
I’m holding strong
Verse 2
I feel the ache, push it far away
So I can survive another day
I tell myself it won’t be long
But that’s a lie, how many years are gone, I realize
Chorus
My soul can’t wait
I can’t hold on
My soul can’t wait
It’s been too long
Verse 3
I clear the clutter, make some order
Hoping I can create, one sane corner
I could feed my mouth and not my soul
And know I’ll never feel I’m full, I realize
Chorus
My soul can’t wait
I can’t hold on
My soul can’t wait
It’s been too long
Bridge
If I wait till I find safety
Life will slip away
When I finally find my footing
It will be too late
Chorus
My soul can’t wait
I can’t hold on
My soul can’t wait
Life will go on
My soul can’t wait
