Not Waiting for Love Lyrics

I grew up on stories where love felt so near

A dance a glance a kiss brought it here

Fairy tales promised a love so divine

But where is mine? Where is mine?

They say love saves you it's God's gentle hand

A miracle meant to help you withstand

But if love is a gift from the skies above

Maybe I wasn't made for that kind of love

I'm not waiting for a love to arrive

Not chasing stars to feel alive

The sun still rises I'm doing just fine

With or without this life is mine

Some passions sparked and quickly died

Others burned bright but still passed me by

I've tasted love or what I thought it to be

But it never felt like it was meant for me

I don't dream of stars as magic or fate

I see their light but I know it's late

Old embers burning from eons away

And that's okay—I'm fine today

I'm not waiting for a love to arrive

Not chasing stars to feel alive

The sun still rises I'm doing just fine

With or without this life is mine

I've got friends family by my side

Laughter from past loves that never died

Some I avoid others make me smile

And through it all I walk my own mile

I'm not waiting for a love to arrive

Not chasing stars to feel alive

The sun still rises I'm doing just fine

With or without this life is mine

Maybe love will find me or maybe it won't

But I'll keep living with or without that note

And if it comes I'll know what to do

But till then this life is enough too
