I CAN'T WAIT

 

Here’s to the hundred thousand people who I’ve met

Here’s to the 97,000 whose names that I forgot

Here’s to the 750 I call my friends

And the one or two or three or four dozen there at the top

Here’s to the sisters and the sho ‘nuffs

The suits and all the grown ups

And little kiddies come out barefoot tonight to play

Most of all this one goes out to the one that I have yet to meet

And I can’t wait for you to take my breath away

 

No I can’t wait

For you to take it

Thought I was doing fine but I was faking

Thought I could make it on my own but I can’t make it

No, I can’t wait for you to take my breath away

 

Here’s to the hundred million fishes in the sea

And all the birds up in the sky I long to be

Here’s to the worms down underground

The trees grown all around

And all the roads we took just to get here to this town

Here’s to the crossroad quick decisions

And the vistas and and the visions

And the whole business spread before us every day

Most of all this one goes out to the place that I have yet to be

And I can’t wait for you to take my breath away

 

No I can’t wait

For you to take it

Thought I was doing fine but I was faking

Thought I could make it on my own but I can’t make it

No, I can’t wait for you to take my breath away

 

Here’s to the people who I’ve passed along this road

Here’s to all the people passing on to the unknown

Here’s to the ones who broke the law

All the saints and my grandpa

Here’s to everyone who’s ever walked alone

Here’s to the goodness that you’re choosing

The times you thought you’d lose it

Here’s to people making people here to stay

Most of all this one goes out to everybody listening to this song

I can’t wait for you to take my breath away
