Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Granddad’s watch on my wrist ticks soft
Coffee steam in the truck cab fog
Sun coming up on a gravel lane
Same red barns, but it’s not the same
Scrolling through old photos fast
Kids grow up, and the moments pass
Every “someday” that I put off
Feels like another page I lost
[Chorus]
Do you love life?
Then don’t waste time
‘Cause that’s the stuff
That it’s made of
Every laugh, every tear
Every small, quiet year
If you love this wild ride you’re dreaming of
Don’t waste time, that’s the stuff life is made of
[Verse 2]
Half-wrote songs in a dusty book
Half-planned trips that we never took
You said “choose us” or “choose that phone”
I chose wrong, drove home alone
Now it’s drive-thru meals and late-night calls
Talking big dreams in these four walls
I’m learning slow what matters most
Holding on, not letting go
[Chorus]
Do you love life?
Then don’t waste time
‘Cause that’s the stuff
That it’s made of
Every fight that we mend
Every call to a friend
If you love this wild ride you’re dreaming of
Don’t waste time, that’s the stuff life is made of
[Bridge]
I don’t want “maybe later” on my stone (oh no)
I want stories in the lines around my eyes
So I’m turning every “can’t” into “I’ll try”
While the clock’s still on my side
[Chorus]
Do you love life?
Then don’t waste time
‘Cause that’s the stuff
That it’s made of
Every road, every turn
Every slow lesson learned
If you love this wild ride you’re dreaming of
Don’t waste time, that’s the stuff life is made of
Yeah, don’t waste time
That’s the stuff life is made of

country, Modern emotional country with male vocals, warm acoustic guitars and subtle pedal steel, intimate verses that build into a big, anthemic chorus; steady kick and snare under a heartfelt lead, light organ pad in the bridge, stacked harmonies lifting the hook on the last chorus, emotional
