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

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

Ah, 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

Ah, 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
Oh, nothing's ever easy right away
Oh, but we're better than yesterday

Ah, 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

Ah, 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
