It can take a long, long time To find a reason and a rhyme One minute you're dancing wild and free Next thing you know you can hardly move your feet Won't you Won't you wait for me? I'm almost there, have faith in me You say you know what I should do But you have never walked a mile In my shoes I keep trudging up the hill It feels like I'm standing still Pouring rain soaks to the bone I shield my eyes and lean into the bitter cold Won't you Won't you wait for me? I'm almost there, have faith in me You say you know what I should do But you have never walked a mile In my shoes Won't you Won't you wait for me? I went so close, have faith in me You say you know what I should do But you have never walked a mile (Walked a mile) Won't you Won't you wait for me? I'm almost there, have faith in me You keep saying what I should do But you have never walked a mile In my shoes
