The Wait

We wait for what seems like all of our lives

We count down the days and the nights

Until what seems like the world

Until it comes to end

We speak of how we're ready

But when it's there we're petrified

Oh how I'm trying just to take it steady

Oh how I try just to stay alive

And now it can all go aside

I'm ready to begin my own life

Away from this strange land

I'm ready to be my own man

So my ideas are running wild

Oh how I feel just like a child

But I'm ready, I'm ready to grow

Yeah I'm ready, to feel old

But now it can all go aside

For I'm ready to begin my own life

Away from this strange land

I'm ready to be my own man

So help me decide what to do with my life

Let me feel like I'm living it right

I want to see sights to behold

For now we're young and soon we'll be old

So now it can all go aside

Yeah I'm ready to begin my own life

Away from this strange land

I'm ready to be my own man

Well you've got the prettiest smile

Yeah you've got the prettiest smile

Yeah you've got the prettiest smile

And I don't even know your name

So you're new in town? Well, I'll show you around

Show you all the places that I like to hang out

And maybe after I'll show you my home

Yeah I'll introduce you to everyone I know

And you can come with me wherever I go

I'll be my friend and you can be my crush

Yeah you've got the prettiest smile

Yeah you've got the prettiest smile

Yeah you've got the prettiest smile

And I don't even know your name

Yeah you've got the prettiest smile

Yeah you've got the prettiest smile

Yeah you've got the prettiest smile

And I don't even know your name
