Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If ever you are feeling like you're tired
And all your uphill struggles leave you headed downhill
If you realize your wildest dreams can hurt you
And your appetite for pain is drinkin' its fill
I ask of you a very simple question
Did you think for one minute that you are alone?
And is your suffering a privilege you share only?
Or did you think that everybody else feels completely at home?
[Verse 2]
Just wait
Just wait
Just wait
It will come
[Verse 3]
If you think I've given up on you, you're crazy
And if you think I don't love you, well, then you're just wrong
In time, you just might take to feelin' better
Time is the beauty of the road bein' long
I know that now you feel no consolation
But, maybe, if I told you and informed you out loud
I say this without fear of hesitation
I can honestly tell you that you make me proud
[Verse 4]
Just wait
Just wait
Just wait
It will come
[Verse 5]
Just wait
Just wait
Just wait
And it will come
And it's comin' on
[Verse 6]
If anything I might've said now has helped you
If anything I might've said helped you just carry on
Your rise uphill may no longer seem a struggle
And your appetite for pain may all but be gone
I hope for you and cannot stop at hoping
Until that smile has once again returned to your face
No such thing as a failure who keeps trying
Coasting to the bottom is the only disgrace
[Verse 7]
Just wait
Just wait
Just wait
And it will come, oh
Just wait
Just wait
Just wait
And it will come, whoa-oh
Just wait
Just wait
Just wait
