Won’t Be Long

[Verse 1]
Me in the mirror now's a little older
Still I don't know enough
Weight of the world somehow sits on my shoulder
And I'm just catching up
My mother says
"Oh, nothing's ever easy right away"

[Verse 2]
Trying to be someone, ambition's dangerous
It comes and it goes so fast
The things I haven't done I'm so impatient
I want it all so bad
My father says
"Oh, nothing's ever easy right away"

[Chorus]
Ah
I promise it won't be long
Why don't you wait and see?
All you could ever want
We'll get where it's meant to be
Promise it won't be long

[Verse 3]
Why do we have to live in different places?
I wanna be with you
You're falling out of this
My heart is breaking
You ask "what can we do?"
And then you said
"Oh, nothing's ever easy right away
Oh, but we're better than yesterday"

[Chorus]
Ah
I promise it won't be long
Why don't you wait and see?
All you could ever want
We'll get where it's meant to be
Promise it won't be long
