WAIT

The harder you try
The more you will wonder what you're doing wrong
The truth of it is
You're singing someone else's song

If you go at it like a bull at a gate
You're never going to feel all the things you should
Just take your time and never think it's too late
And know that tomorrow's going to be so good

Wait 'til the time is right
The tide will turn
Wait 'til the time is right
The fire will burn
Any clouds will disappear
You'll be smiling ear to ear
Wait 'til the time
Wait 'til the time… is right

You've got to have trust
'Cause that's the way all true love is found
You've got to believe
And that will push your demons down

If you go at it like a sqeeling pig
You're never going to feel all the things you should
Just be relaxed and nothing seems so big
And know that tomorrow's going to be so good

Wait 'til the time is right
The tide will turn
Wait 'til the time is right
The fire will burn
Any clouds will disappear
You'll be smiling ear to ear
Wait 'til the time
Wait 'til the time… is right

Don't panic
Don't freak
If you have to wait another week
Don't fret
Don't fight
Wait 'til the time… is right

Wait 'til the time is right
The tide will turn
Wait 'til the time is right
The fire will burn
Any clouds will disappear
You'll be smiling ear to ear
Wait 'til the time
Wait 'til the time… is right

I thought the kick did not suit the song, so I replaced/layered it with a sample. Sounds better to me.

New version is attached to first post.

You put a good band together here, it all hangs together very nicely. I like the drumming around the 'wqit till the time is right ' part

Good Stuff.
