Waitin' for a feelin' to materialize Laughing and crying's the same release The radio's playin' that song that you like A young band trying to find its feet I know it's probably not my phrase But don't make me wait Trust me, nothing will change And tomorrow's all there is The rest is space That you'd wanna fill with a better world A better job and a better girl A purpose is just somethin' that works For more than a while You know how it sounds, but you don't know how it feels Laughing and crying's the same release You sing about distance while you're closing her in I love you, I used to, I'm sure I did But all our memories will fade And when they're gone Who cares about the marks that we made? And while our bodies grow old, in my mind We're still The toughest kids on our street Still waiting for life to agree And I had you, so you must have had me back at 17 ♪ I know it's probably not my phrase But don't make me wait Trust me, nothing will change Though I cannot feel my years They're all here in my songs to you And I know that when my number is up When every song has been sung And every thought has been fought I'll be counting on you to be here To kiss me off
