I keep waiting for the world to change Guess I'll be waiting a long, long time I was born with a heart that breaks And a longing for the move and shake Change your world and I'll change mine Change your world and I'll change mine I keep waiting for an easy way Guess I'll be waiting a long, long time It's a winding road and a weary turn And every corner is a lesson learned Walk your way and I'll walk mine Walk your way and I'll walk mine I keep waiting for a simple answer Guess I'll be waiting for a long, long time Trying to live by the hardfast rules Why you wonder if they're even true Make your peace and I'll make mine 'Cause time is standing still for no one The clock is ticking and it don't rewind No more turning this thing around It's only forward 'till we're in the ground Take your time and I'll take mine Take your time and I'll take mine I keep waiting for the world to change Guess I'll be waiting a long, long time I was born with a heart that breaks And a longing for the move and shake Change your world and I'll change mine Change your world and I'll change mine
