Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Stay strong, carry on

What you want isn't far away

If you were so sure that we're not working out

You don't have to stay

You say you want more, what's it for?

Set the score every time you play

'Cause if you can't see how much you mean to me

What else can I say?

[Verse 2]

Why can't you wait?

Why can't you wait?

[Verse 3]

Stay strong, carry on

You should know that I'm here to stay

And if you need more, what's it for?

Tell me what price I gotta pay

[Verse 4]

Why can't you wait?

This isn't temporary

Wait, I need you more than you think

Wait, I'm only asking you to stay

[Verse 5]

Why can't you wait for me to call just to hear you say?

I'm all that you want and you wanna stay

Why would you hang on for so long just to walk away?

Why can't you wait?

Why can't you wait?

Why can't you wait for me to know who I wanna be?

You're the one I want when I'm runnin' free

I know that someday we could say we were meant to be

Why can't you wait?

Why can't you wait?

[Verse 6]

Why can't you wait?

Why can't you wait?

[Verse 7]

There's so much more in store for us both on the other side

One day we can say that we left all of this behind

[Verse 8]

Why can't you wait?

This isn't temporary

Wait, I need you more than you think

Wait, I'm only asking you to stay

[Verse 9]

Why can't you wait for me to call just to hear you say?

I'm all that you want and you wanna stay

Why would you hang on for so long just to walk away?

Why can't you wait?

Why can't you wait?

Why can't you wait for me to know who I wanna be?

You're the one I want when I'm runnin' free

I know that someday we could say we were meant to be

Why can't you wait?

Why can't you wait?

[Verse 10]

Why can't you wait?

Why can't you wait?

Why can't you wait?
