I Can Wait Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I remember way back when I was ten
Trying like hell to be my own man
Big shoes to fill and I ain't filled them yet
Been chasing big dreams down the road for a while
I'm scuffed up and scarred but hey that's life
Nothing worth having ever comes easy I guess

[Chorus]
But if it takes a little longer I sit on back
Got everything I need right where I'm at
Long as I'm breathing and keep hitting my knees and pray
The good Lord knows when life's supposed to happen
Just gotta keep trying, gotta keep on laughing
I know deep down gonna get where I'm going someday
But I can wait
[Verse 2]
I've sеttled on down, got kids of my own
The way they talk you'd swеar they're grown
I hope they don't grow up near as fast as they like
Yeah me and my baby we're gonna get gray
The kids'll move out and make their way
And that day will be here in the blink of an eye [Chorus]
So if it takes a little longer I sit on back
Got everything I need right where I'm at
Long as I'm breathing and keep hitting my knees and pray
The good Lord knows when life's supposed to happen
Just gotta keep trying, gotta keep on laughing
I know deep down gonna get where I'm going someday
But I can wait

[Bridge]
I remember my daddy saying he couldn't wait
To see me singing on that Opry stage
Now it ain't happened yet
But I know it will some day

[Chorus]
So if it takes a little longer I sit on back
Got everything I need right where I'm at
Long as I'm breathing and keep hitting my knees and pray
The good Lord knows when life's supposed to happen
Just gotta keep trying, gotta keep on laughing
I know deep down gonna get where I'm going someday
But I can wait
