Well I turned out my pockets at the end of the night Still had some money I was doing alright But I know I heard the fireworks cracking and the sky was golden Chinese lanterns set free on the rise But I knew Love don't wait around for you
I took one for the team but I never played the same They wrote my story and they asked for my name But I knew And I learned how to lie how to make believe I tried for hours to pull you out of my sleeve But I knew
Love don't wait around for you to catch on Try to work it out you won't before it's gone Life don't always go the way you want it to And I can't wait around for you
All the guests at my table were folks I didn't know I sang for hours yeah I put on a show But I knew Then I saw you one time you just turned and ran I danced cartwheels around you and I walked on my hands But I knew
Love don't wait around for you to catch on Try to work it out you won't before it's gone Life don't always go the way you want it to And I can't wait around
Heard the fireworks cracking and the sky was golden Chinese lanterns set free on the rise But I knew
Love don't wait around for you to catch on Try to work it out you won't before it's gone Life don't always go the way you want it to And I can't wait around for you
