It's been a year of trials and tribulations
I've been stretched out paper thin
And you held my hand through the mess and confusion
That we find ourselves in
I see your hair turning grey at the mention of the mountain
That we still have to climb
But I'm figuring it out a day by day
And one small step at a time
I'll never know unless I try
We'll never be the greatest if I can't rectify
What good is pretending when we know what waits outside?
But I hope you can wait
Hope you can wait while I take my time
You've held your ground and stood firmly
Now it's time I did the same
But the ground's a little shaky
The rocks keep falling away
Just when I think that the storm is ending
The fires burn up ahead
And I'm back at the beginning
There's no room left inside of my head
I'll never know unless I try
We'll never be the greatest if I can't rectify
What good is pretending when we know what waits outside?
But I hope you can wait
Hope you can wait while I take my time
I hope that you can wait for me
No, no, no, no, no, no
I hope that you can wait for me
I'll take my time from these waves
I hope that you can wait for me
Please won't you wait for me?
No, no, no, no, no, no
I hope that you can wait for me
I hope that you will wait for me
I'll never know unless I try
We'll never be the greatest if I can't rectify
What good is pretending when we know what waits outside?
But I hope you can wait
Hope you can wait while I take my time
