Won't Be Long

Me in the mirror now's a little older
Still, I don't know enough
Weight of the world somehow sits on my shoulders
And I'm just catching up
My mother said, "Ooh, nothing's ever easy right away"

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

Oh, oh, 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

Oh, oh, 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

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, "Ooh, nothing's ever easy right away
Ooh, but we're better than yesterday"

Oh, oh, 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

Oh, oh, 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
